Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 55.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 64 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 23 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 44 innings at 15.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 81 wickets in 61 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 1.33 per match at 22.8, economy 4.79, strike rate 28.5.
