Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.6 over 257 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 17% 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 (10 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.36 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

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 125 catches in 261 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 15 run outs.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 21 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 63 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
×0.55 for the level played (National competition 13 · Club 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 36 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 73 catches + 21 stumpings + 15 run outs (11 direct, 4 assisted) in 261 matches — 0.42 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 257 innings at 12.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 40 wickets from 156.5 overs across 36 matches bowled in (of 261 played) — 0.15 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
