Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 59.0 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
1.04 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 161 catches in 155 matches (1.04 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 36 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 84 × 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
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 16 · Club 139). 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: 143 catches + 36 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 155 matches — 1.16 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 129 innings at 15.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 32.0 overs across 12 matches bowled in (of 155 played) — 0.05 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
