Critical recommendations

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 Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.47 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.2.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 34 catches in 72 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 43 × 30% · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.72 for the level played (1st grade 40 · Rep Div 1 3 · 2nd grade 27 · 3rd grade 2). 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: 29 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 72 matches — 0.43 per match.
Batting
1,353 runs in 60 innings, adjusted average 24.4, strike rate 69.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
64 wickets in 43 matches bowled in (of 72 played) — 1.49 per match at 17.2, economy 3.81, strike rate 27.2.
