Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 50.1 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 Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 2.84 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.16 dismissals per match across 25 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.84.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · Bowling 49 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 18 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.16 per match.
Batting
305 runs in 18 innings, adjusted average 21.7, strike rate 50.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
33 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 1.38 per match at 20.4, economy 2.84, strike rate 43.1.
