Kookaburra Men's Premier Thirds · 2025/26 · 19×4, 0×6 · SR 74

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 64.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.7.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 6 hundred(s), best of 130.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.92.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 14 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting 75 × 30% · Bowling 45 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.72 for the level played (National competition 12 · Rep Div 1 25 · 2nd grade 12 · 3rd grade 10 · Club 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 60 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 49 catches + 14 run outs (10 direct, 4 assisted) in 246 matches — 0.26 per match.
Batting
5,860 runs in 236 innings, adjusted average 31.7, strike rate 64.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
187 wickets in 206 matches bowled in (of 246 played) — 0.91 per match at 19.5, economy 2.92, strike rate 39.9.
