Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 60.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 14 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (State competition 2 · Rep Div 1 4 · Club 42). 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: 11 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 44 innings at 15.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 21 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 0.43 per match at 40.8, economy 4.85, strike rate 50.4.
