Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 53.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Economy of 3.59 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.63 for the level played (Rep Div 1 15 · Club 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 45 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 46 innings at 15.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 60.7 overs across 21 matches bowled in (of 45 played) — 0.38 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
