Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 49.2 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 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.22.
- ✓ Safe hands — 49 catches in 131 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 52 × 30%. 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 (1st grade 18 · Rep Div 1 17 · 2nd grade 42 · 3rd grade 12 · Club 40 · 4th grade 2). 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: 48 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 131 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 97 innings at 18.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 164 wickets in 112 matches bowled in (of 131 played) — 1.46 per match at 19.9, economy 3.22, strike rate 37.1.
