Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 52.9 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.66 for the level played (State competition 1 · 1st grade 15 · Club 22 · 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: 13 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 19.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 9 wickets from 42.7 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.23 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
