Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 32.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.6.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.72.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 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 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 24 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 20 innings at 17.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 24 played) — 1.15 per match at 16.6, economy 3.72, strike rate 26.7.
