- ● Body of work — 7 imported matches (+0.1)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 12.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Economy of 3.91 is excellent but a wicket every 80 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Bowling average (51.8) beats batting average (22.4) — selection case is as a bowling all-rounder; protect bowling workload first.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting 63 × 30% · Bowling 42 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.49 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 2). 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: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 7 matches — 0.14 per match.
- Batting
- 122 runs in 7 innings, adjusted average 22.4, strike rate 12.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 4 wickets in 6 matches bowled in (of 7 played) — 0.67 per match at 51.8, economy 3.91, strike rate 79.5.
