Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 41.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.67 for the level played (National competition 10 · 1st grade 56 · 2nd grade 21 · 3rd grade 18 · Club 2 · 4th grade 4 · 5th grade and below 7). 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: 40 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 118 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 110 innings at 15.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 189 wickets in 106 matches bowled in (of 118 played) — 1.78 per match at 28.4, economy 4.61, strike rate 37.0.
