Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 58.7 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 8% of 50+ scores become hundreds (11 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 31 × 40% · Batting 53 × 30% · Bowling 44 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.65 for the level played (National competition 8 · State competition 3 · 1st grade 44 · Rep Div 1 8 · 2nd grade 54 · 3rd grade 14 · Club 28). 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: 40 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 159 matches — 0.28 per match.
Batting
2,274 runs in 131 innings, adjusted average 21.2, strike rate 58.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
160 wickets in 125 matches bowled in (of 159 played) — 1.28 per match at 26.1, economy 4.50, strike rate 34.8.
