Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 61.3 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
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (10 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.17.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 21 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 42 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.42 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · 2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 13 · 4th grade 10 · 5th grade and below 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 38 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 57 catches + 21 run outs (13 direct, 8 assisted) in 259 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 228 innings at 19.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 186 wickets in 233 matches bowled in (of 259 played) — 0.80 per match at 17.8, economy 3.17, strike rate 33.6.
