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 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (14 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding

- ✓ Safe hands — 50 catches in 79 matches (0.63 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling 40 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 79). 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: 44 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 79 matches — 0.58 per match.
- Batting
- 2,190 runs in 79 innings, adjusted average 28.8, strike rate 77.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 16 wickets in 26 matches bowled in (of 79 played) — 0.20 per match at 30.8, economy 4.73, strike rate 39.0.
