Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 40.7 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.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 10 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 28 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 82 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 86 innings at 15.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 50 wickets from 286.3 overs across 43 matches bowled in (of 82 played) — 1.16 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
