Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 55.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
20 of 27 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.47 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.08.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 34 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 31 innings at 16.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 14 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 1.50 per match at 12.6, economy 3.08, strike rate 24.6.
