Kookaburra Men's Premier Firsts · 2026/27 · 13×4, 1×6
· SR 57
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 95 balls (SR 53), then 50 to 100 in just 86 (SR 58) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 48.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
77 of 106 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (19 fifties, 3 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 112.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 73 × 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
- ×0.75 for the level played (1st grade 27 · 2nd grade 6 · Club 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 37 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 35 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 149 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- 3,381 runs in 141 innings, adjusted average 29.9, strike rate 48.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 16 wickets from 127.2 overs across 34 matches bowled in (of 149 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
