Critical recommendations
17 of 32 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
0.53 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 30.1.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 105.
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 34 matches (0.53 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 66 × 40% · Batting 61 × 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
- ×0.34 for the level played (2nd grade 12 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 6 · 4th grade 6 · 5th grade and below 8). 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: 18 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.62 per match.
- Batting
- 997 runs in 39 innings, adjusted average 30.2, strike rate 70.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 13.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
