- ● Body of work — 33 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 52.6 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 33 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.49 for the level played (1st grade 11 · 2nd grade 13 · 3rd grade 3 · Club 6). 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: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.18 per match.
- Batting
- 897 runs in 37 innings, adjusted average 26.9, strike rate 52.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
