Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 59.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.29 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
Strengths
- ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 13 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 10 catches + 4 stumpings + 7 run outs (1 direct, 6 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.44 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 41 innings at 15.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 14.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 0.08 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
