Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 20.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 10.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.17.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 75). 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 + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 75 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 55 innings at 17.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 66 wickets in 70 matches bowled in (of 75 played) — 0.94 per match at 10.8, economy 2.17, strike rate 29.9.
