Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 36.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.44.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 7 stumpings.
- ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 61). 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: 17 catches + 7 run outs (7 direct, 0 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 50 innings at 27.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 36 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 0.82 per match at 18.1, economy 3.44, strike rate 31.6.
