Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
59 of 83 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.97 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 37.6.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 8 hundred(s), best of 159.
- ✓ Safe hands — 87 catches in 90 matches (0.97 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting 75 × 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
- ×0.51 for the level played (State competition 9 · Rep Div 1 6 · Club 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 44 catches + 9 run outs (3 direct, 6 assisted) in 90 matches — 0.59 per match.
- Batting
- 3,152 runs in 92 innings, adjusted average 37.6, strike rate 81.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 5.5 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 90 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
