Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 54.3 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.45.
- ✓ Safe hands — 47 catches in 129 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 (Rep Div 1 21 · Club 108). 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: 39 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 129 matches — 0.34 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 112 innings at 18.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 105 wickets in 98 matches bowled in (of 129 played) — 1.07 per match at 18.4, economy 3.45, strike rate 32.0.
