Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 54.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
medium
Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par
0.31 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 49 catches in 129 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 14 run outs.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 16 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 20 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.46 for the level played (State competition 9 · Rep Div 1 10 · Rep Div 2 9 · Club 101). 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
- Keeping: 24 catches + 16 stumpings + 14 run outs (14 direct, 0 assisted) in 129 matches — 0.42 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 112 innings at 21.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 31 wickets in 55 matches bowled in (of 129 played) — 0.56 per match at 15.9, economy 3.36, strike rate 28.4.
