Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 11.8 over 310 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

88 of 175 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.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 15% 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 17 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 40 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.87 for the level played (National competition 15 · 1st grade 33 · Club 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 50 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 98 catches + 17 run outs (14 direct, 3 assisted) in 450 matches — 0.26 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 310 innings at 11.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
625 wickets in 406 matches bowled in (of 450 played) — 1.54 per match at 23.7, economy 3.91, strike rate 36.3.
