Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 10.7 over 48 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.48 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.32.
- ✓ Safe hands — 31 catches in 65 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.52 for the level played (State competition 5 · Rep Div 1 32 · Club 24 · 5th grade and below 4). 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: 31 catches + 7 run outs (7 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.58 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 48 innings at 10.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 72 wickets in 58 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 1.24 per match at 19.5, economy 3.32, strike rate 35.3.
