Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 64.1 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 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.87.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.35 for the level played (2nd grade 4 · 3rd grade 28 · Club 3 · 4th grade 11). 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: 15 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 16.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 71 wickets in 43 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 1.65 per match at 15.1, economy 2.87, strike rate 31.7.
