Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 44.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

14 of 24 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.7.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.53 for the level played (1st grade 2 · Rep Div 1 13 · Club 23). 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 + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 38 matches — 0.29 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 39 innings at 17.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
28 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 38 played) — 0.93 per match at 17.7, economy 3.96, strike rate 26.8.
