Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 35.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.95.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 77). 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: 19 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 77 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 64 innings at 17.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 105 wickets in 60 matches bowled in (of 77 played) — 1.75 per match at 14.3, economy 2.95, strike rate 29.2.
