Critical recommendations

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 10% 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

0.50 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 17.9.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.08.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 71 catches in 143 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 14 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 57 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.48 for the level played (State competition 1 · 1st grade 34 · 2nd grade 43 · 3rd grade 11 · Club 6 · 4th grade 13 · 5th grade and below 35). 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: 71 catches + 14 run outs (14 direct, 0 assisted) in 143 matches — 0.59 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 98 innings at 19.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
193 wickets in 121 matches bowled in (of 143 played) — 1.60 per match at 17.9, economy 3.08, strike rate 34.9.
