Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 57.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 11% 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 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (18 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 161.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.8.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.73.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.41 for the level played (State competition 10 · 1st grade 8 · Rep Div 1 23 · Club 116). 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: 38 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 157 matches — 0.25 per match.
Batting
3,619 runs in 150 innings, adjusted average 26.5, strike rate 57.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
95 wickets in 77 matches bowled in (of 157 played) — 1.23 per match at 17.8, economy 3.73, strike rate 28.6.
