Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 58.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.69 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 85 catches in 123 matches (0.69 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 13 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 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
- ×0.81 for the level played (State competition 15 · 1st grade 62 · Rep Div 1 21 · 2nd grade 19 · 3rd grade 6). 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: 49 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 123 matches — 0.42 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 106 innings at 21.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 9 wickets from 51.0 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 123 played) — 0.07 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
