Critical recommendations

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.14 is excellent but a wicket every 88 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info General
Small sample size

Only 4 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.14.
  • ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 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 6). 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: 2 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 6 matches — 0.50 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 4 innings at 10.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
3 wickets in 6 matches — 0.50 per match at 46.0, economy 3.14, strike rate 88.0.
