Critical recommendations

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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (14 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 40% · Batting 51 × 30% · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.33 for the level played (State competition 6 · Rep Div 1 19 · Club 182). 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: 99 catches + 11 run outs (11 direct, 0 assisted) in 207 matches — 0.53 per match.

2,934 runs in 173 innings, adjusted average 21.5, strike rate 67.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
220 wickets in 182 matches bowled in (of 207 played) — 1.21 per match at 18.3, economy 3.72, strike rate 29.6.
