Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.04.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 72 catches in 172 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 14 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting 53 × 30% · Bowling 69 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.35 for the level played (State competition 20 · Rep Div 1 4 · Club 148). 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: 72 catches + 14 run outs (14 direct, 0 assisted) in 172 matches — 0.50 per match.
Batting
1,856 runs in 142 innings, adjusted average 17.6, strike rate 87.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
342 wickets in 166 matches bowled in (of 172 played) — 2.06 per match at 15.5, economy 3.04, strike rate 30.5.
