Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 60.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.20 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.20.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 37 × 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 9 · 2nd grade 4 · 3rd grade 23 · 4th grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 38 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 15.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 57 wickets in 49 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 1.16 per match at 23.4, economy 3.20, strike rate 44.0.
