Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 59.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 12% 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 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (25 fifties, 4 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 30.9.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 169.
- ✓ Safe hands — 54 catches in 139 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 64 × 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
- ×0.39 for the level played (2nd grade 23 · 3rd grade 62 · Club 6 · 4th grade 26 · 5th grade and below 22). 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: 54 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 139 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- 3,895 runs in 138 innings, adjusted average 30.9, strike rate 59.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 37.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 139 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
