Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 41.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
47 of 64 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.43 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 9.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.24.
- ✓ Safe hands — 53 catches in 124 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 6 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.42 for the level played (Rep Div 1 26 · Club 98). 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: 48 catches + 8 run outs (8 direct, 0 assisted) in 124 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 113 innings at 23.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 117 wickets in 117 matches bowled in (of 124 played) — 1.00 per match at 9.5, economy 2.24, strike rate 25.6.
