Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

366 of 512 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.44 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.2.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 30 hundred(s), best of 257.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 238 catches in 540 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 27 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting 84 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.93 for the level played (National competition 21 · 1st grade 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 42 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 237 catches + 27 run outs (24 direct, 3 assisted) in 540 matches — 0.49 per match.
Batting
18,099 runs in 544 innings, adjusted average 35.2, strike rate 82.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
458 wickets in 409 matches bowled in (of 540 played) — 1.12 per match at 28.3, economy 4.43, strike rate 38.4.
