Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 49.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
33 of 46 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.94.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting 39 × 30% · Bowling 64 × 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 50). 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.

- Outfield: 15 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.42 per match.
