Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 61.0 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 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.41 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 101.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 62 catches in 137 matches (0.45 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 14 run outs.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 24 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 57 × 40% · Batting 48 × 30% · Bowling 24 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.43 for the level played (State competition 7 · Rep Div 1 25 · Club 105). 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
Keeping: 32 catches + 24 stumpings + 14 run outs (14 direct, 0 assisted) in 137 matches — 0.51 dismissals per match.

1,976 runs in 112 innings, adjusted average 22.1, strike rate 61.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
