Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

42 of 53 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

0.42 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 43.3.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 5 hundred(s), best of 137.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 27 catches in 65 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 57 × 40% · Batting 86 × 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
×0.92 for the level played (National competition 24 · 1st grade 40 · Club 1). 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: 27 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.48 per match.
Batting
2,317 runs in 59 innings, adjusted average 43.3, strike rate 77.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 15 wickets from 111.0 overs across 12 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 0.23 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
