Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 54.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.56 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 9.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 1.84.
- ✓ Safe hands — 45 catches in 80 matches (0.56 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 71 × 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 80). 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: 45 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 80 matches — 0.59 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 44 innings at 16.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 96 wickets in 74 matches bowled in (of 80 played) — 1.30 per match at 9.8, economy 1.84, strike rate 32.0.
