Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 45.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.20 dismissals per match across 141 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.99.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 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 141). 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: 28 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 141 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 109 innings at 15.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 189 wickets in 131 matches bowled in (of 141 played) — 1.44 per match at 17.5, economy 2.99, strike rate 35.1.
