Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 45.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
7 of 14 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 8.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.83.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 17 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 76 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.38 for the level played (Rep Div 1 11 · Club 32). 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: 12 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 43 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 17.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 42 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 43 played) — 1.00 per match at 8.0, economy 2.83, strike rate 17.0.
