Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 59.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
high
Bowling
Conceding too many extras
1.0 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.17 dismissals per match across 41 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.9.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 18 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.35 for the level played (2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 10 · Club 30). 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: 5 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.15 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 33 innings at 16.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 31 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.94 per match at 11.9, economy 3.87, strike rate 18.4.
