Critical recommendations
highBatting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 41.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
mediumBatting
Too many aerial dismissals
42 of 60 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
infoFielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.45 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 9.6.
✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.73.
✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
✓ Safe hands — 45 catches in 100 matches (0.45 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.42 for the level played (State competition 8 · Rep Div 1 11 · Rep Div 2 5 · Club 76). 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: 26 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 100 matches — 0.31 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 78 innings at 17.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
42 wickets in 58 matches bowled in (of 100 played) — 0.72 per match at 9.6, economy 2.73, strike rate 21.0.
