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.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 9% of 50+ scores become hundreds (10 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 131.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.2.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.75.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 74 catches in 207 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 15 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 58 × 40% · Batting 56 × 30% · Bowling 67 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.60 for the level played (State competition 17 · Rep Div 1 11 · Club 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 53 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 74 catches + 15 run outs (11 direct, 4 assisted) in 207 matches — 0.43 per match.
Batting
2,534 runs in 167 innings, adjusted average 18.0, strike rate 77.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
317 wickets in 200 matches bowled in (of 207 played) — 1.58 per match at 16.2, economy 3.75, strike rate 25.9.
