Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 29.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.75.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 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 17 · 4th grade 4). 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: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 15.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 1.18 per match at 23.3, economy 3.75, strike rate 37.3.
