Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 47.0 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.64.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 11 run outs.
- ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · Bowling 67 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.59 for the level played (State competition 14 · Rep Div 1 9 · 2nd grade 1 · Club 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 46 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 11 run outs (6 direct, 5 assisted) in 80 matches — 0.34 per match.
- Batting
- 1,186 runs in 70 innings, adjusted average 19.9, strike rate 47.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 56 wickets in 50 matches bowled in (of 80 played) — 1.12 per match at 17.3, economy 3.64, strike rate 28.6.
