Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 64.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.34.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 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 39). 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: 10 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 21.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 47 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 1.34 per match at 15.5, economy 3.34, strike rate 27.9.
