Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.8 over 65 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.39 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.39.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 31 catches in 76 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 47 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.70 for the level played (1st grade 56 · 2nd grade 5 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 14). 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: 31 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 76 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 65 innings at 13.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
109 wickets in 74 matches bowled in (of 76 played) — 1.47 per match at 24.5, economy 3.39, strike rate 43.3.
