Critical recommendations
14 of 19 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.48 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 25 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · Bowling 50 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.63 for the level played (State competition 4 · Rep Div 1 9 · Club 12). 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: 11 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.60 per match.
- Batting
- 496 runs in 23 innings, adjusted average 25.3, strike rate 75.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 13 wickets in 11 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 1.18 per match at 25.9, economy 4.06, strike rate 38.2.
