Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 9% of 50+ scores become hundreds (10 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.43 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 101.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 88 catches in 206 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 23 run outs.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 12 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 50 × 40% · Batting 45 × 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
×0.41 for the level played (State competition 7 · Rep Div 1 57 · Club 142). 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: 79 catches + 23 run outs (23 direct, 0 assisted) in 206 matches — 0.50 per match.
Batting
3,321 runs in 192 innings, adjusted average 22.2, strike rate 70.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 26 wickets from 149.5 overs across 50 matches bowled in (of 206 played) — 0.13 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
