Critical recommendations
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 2.93 is excellent but a wicket every 44 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.93.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting 40 × 30% · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.29 for the level played (3rd grade 2 · 4th grade 13 · 5th grade and below 1). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- 298 runs in 15 innings, adjusted average 23.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 16 matches — 1.31 per match at 21.2, economy 2.93, strike rate 43.5.
