Critical recommendations
highBatting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.0 over 121 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
mediumBatting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
infoFielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.46 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 15.8.
✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
✓ Safe hands — 70 catches in 152 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 17 run outs.
✓ Sharp glovework — 13 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 53 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.52 for the level played (State competition 3 · Rep Div 1 18 · Club 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 47 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 70 catches + 17 run outs (8 direct, 9 assisted) in 152 matches — 0.57 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 121 innings at 12.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
175 wickets in 134 matches bowled in (of 152 played) — 1.31 per match at 15.8, economy 3.84, strike rate 24.7.
