Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 54.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.98 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 107.
- ✓ Safe hands — 100 catches in 102 matches (0.98 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 20 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 58 × 40% · Batting 55 × 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
- ×0.53 for the level played (1st grade 3 · Rep Div 1 21 · 2nd grade 46 · 3rd grade 22 · Club 8 · 4th grade 2). 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
- Keeping: 90 catches + 20 stumpings + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 102 matches — 1.14 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,536 runs in 91 innings, adjusted average 20.4, strike rate 54.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 4.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 102 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
