Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Batting

Strengths

- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 231.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 59 × 30% · Bowling 33 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.53 for the level played (1st grade 10 · Rep Div 1 2 · 2nd grade 27 · 3rd grade 5 · Club 31). 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: 24 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 75 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- 1,744 runs in 77 innings, adjusted average 22.7, strike rate 101.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 42 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 75 played) — 1.08 per match at 23.9, economy 4.30, strike rate 33.4.
