Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 49.5 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 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.23 dismissals per match across 65 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.9.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.23.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting 54 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.65 for the level played (1st grade 7 · 2nd grade 18 · 3rd grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 27 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 15 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.23 per match.
Batting
679 runs in 46 innings, adjusted average 20.2, strike rate 49.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
115 wickets in 64 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 1.80 per match at 17.9, economy 3.23, strike rate 33.4.
