Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.49 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 13.3.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 18 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 37 matches (0.49 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting 65 × 30% · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.38 for the level played (State competition 5 · Rep Div 1 1 · 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: 14 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
816 runs in 36 innings, adjusted average 28.3, strike rate 72.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
15 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 37 played) — 0.83 per match at 13.3, economy 4.54, strike rate 17.5.
