Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 51.0 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 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 45 catches in 128 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.43 for the level played (Rep Div 1 13 · 2nd grade 40 · 3rd grade 36 · 4th grade 26 · 5th grade and below 13). 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: 43 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 128 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 133 innings at 22.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 19 wickets from 162.5 overs across 32 matches bowled in (of 128 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
