Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 59.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 115.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.2.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 58 × 30% · Bowling 55 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- 428 runs in 16 innings, adjusted average 28.4, strike rate 59.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 10 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 1.43 per match at 17.2, economy 4.55, strike rate 22.7.
