Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 58.1 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 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 134.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.8.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.29.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 83 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 48 × 40% · Batting 62 × 30% · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.65 for the level played (State competition 2 · Rep Div 1 37 · Club 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 54 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 29 catches + 6 run outs (2 direct, 4 assisted) in 83 matches — 0.42 per match.
Batting
1,388 runs in 70 innings, adjusted average 23.5, strike rate 58.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
41 wickets in 40 matches bowled in (of 83 played) — 1.02 per match at 16.8, economy 3.29, strike rate 30.6.
