Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 61.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 10 hundred(s), best of 126.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting 71 × 30% · 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
×0.71 for the level played (National competition 55 · State competition 15 · 1st grade 53 · Rep Div 1 38 · 2nd grade 37 · Club 120). 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: 88 catches + 10 run outs (10 direct, 0 assisted) in 318 matches — 0.31 per match.
Batting
8,397 runs in 332 innings, adjusted average 29.0, strike rate 61.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 61 wickets from 505.8 overs across 102 matches bowled in (of 318 played) — 0.19 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
