Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.7 over 31 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 23% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
1.03 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 31 catches in 30 matches (1.03 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 8 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 92 × 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
- ×0.57 for the level played (1st grade 2 · 2nd grade 12 · 3rd grade 10 · 4th 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
- Keeping: 19 catches + 8 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.93 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 31 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 1.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
