Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 46.5 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.97.
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 54 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 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
- ×0.41 for the level played (1st grade 13 · Club 41). 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: 19 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 56 innings at 16.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 72 wickets in 50 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 1.44 per match at 17.6, economy 2.97, strike rate 35.6.
