medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 96 × 40% · Batting 68 × 30% · 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
×0.80 for the level played (National competition 7 · State competition 2 · 1st grade 87 · Rep Div 1 1 · 2nd grade 49). 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
Keeping: 167 catches + 19 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 146 matches — 1.28 dismissals per match.
Batting
2,699 runs in 138 innings, adjusted average 23.5, strike rate 68.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 1 wicket from 4.8 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 146 played) — 0.01 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
