Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 47.0 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 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 101.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 52 × 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
- ×0.73 for the level played (1st grade 29 · Rep Div 1 23 · 2nd grade 54 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 13 · 4th grade 1). 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: 39 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 122 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- 2,735 runs in 122 innings, adjusted average 26.1, strike rate 47.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 9.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 122 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
