Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 52.9 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

0.44 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 118 catches in 266 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 11 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 33 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.81 for the level played (National competition 9 · 1st grade 218 · Rep Div 1 2 · 2nd grade 9 · 3rd grade 7 · Club 21). 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: 117 catches + 11 run outs (11 direct, 0 assisted) in 266 matches — 0.48 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 213 innings at 17.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
371 wickets in 248 matches bowled in (of 266 played) — 1.50 per match at 31.4, economy 4.05, strike rate 46.5.
