Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 62.8 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 16% 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
0.24 dismissals per match across 91 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 18.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.69.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.65 for the level played (State competition 7 · 1st grade 1 · Rep Div 1 23 · 2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 3 · Club 12 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 48 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 14 catches + 8 run outs (5 direct, 3 assisted) in 91 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 63 innings at 15.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 95 wickets in 75 matches bowled in (of 91 played) — 1.27 per match at 18.0, economy 3.69, strike rate 29.3.
