Critical recommendations
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.

Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 49 catches in 128 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 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
- ×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 122). 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 + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 128 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 118 innings at 20.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 22 wickets from 108.2 overs across 31 matches bowled in (of 128 played) — 0.17 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
