Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 41.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
59 of 79 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.46 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.11.
- ✓ Safe hands — 45 catches in 98 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (State competition 3 · Club 95). 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: 45 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 98 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 92 innings at 16.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 112 wickets in 87 matches bowled in (of 98 played) — 1.29 per match at 17.0, economy 3.11, strike rate 32.9.
