Critical recommendations

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 17% 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 (4 fifties, 0 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

  • ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 28 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 60 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
×0.36 for the level played (2nd grade 6 · 3rd grade 7 · Club 3 · 4th grade 12). 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: 13 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.57 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 24 innings at 26.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 1 wicket from 3.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
