Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 57.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 130.
- ✓ Safe hands — 44 catches in 112 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 56 × 40% · Batting 62 × 30% · 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
- ×0.46 for the level played (1st grade 54 · 2nd grade 24 · Club 33 · 4th grade 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: 44 catches + 7 run outs (7 direct, 0 assisted) in 112 matches — 0.46 per match.
- Batting
- 2,834 runs in 126 innings, adjusted average 25.7, strike rate 57.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 11 wickets from 117.0 overs across 26 matches bowled in (of 112 played) — 0.10 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
