Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 47.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (43 fifties, 5 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 5 hundred(s), best of 143.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.72.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 130 catches in 284 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 14 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 51 × 40% · Batting 69 × 30% · Bowling 46 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.73 for the level played (State competition 5 · 1st grade 131 · Rep Div 1 56 · 2nd grade 38 · 3rd grade 8 · Club 46). 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: 124 catches + 14 run outs (14 direct, 0 assisted) in 284 matches — 0.49 per match.
