Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 62.2 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
0.51 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 105.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.09.
- ✓ Safe hands — 24 catches in 47 matches (0.51 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling 47 × 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 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 19 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.47 per match.
- Batting
- 1,044 runs in 44 innings, adjusted average 28.6, strike rate 62.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 41 wickets in 38 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 1.08 per match at 20.0, economy 3.09, strike rate 38.8.
