high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strengths

  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 49 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 38). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 38 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 13 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 46 innings at 15.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
31 wickets in 31 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 1.00 per match at 14.9, economy 4.36, strike rate 20.5.
