Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.3 over 57 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.23 dismissals per match across 111 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.74.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.79 for the level played (National competition 6 · State competition 4 · 1st grade 24 · 2nd grade 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 51 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 21 catches + 5 run outs (4 direct, 1 assisted) in 111 matches — 0.23 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 57 innings at 10.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
156 wickets in 103 matches bowled in (of 111 played) — 1.51 per match at 19.6, economy 3.74, strike rate 31.5.
