Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 55.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.42 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 — 5 hundred(s), best of 120.
- ✓ Safe hands — 72 catches in 173 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting 41 × 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
- ×0.34 for the level played (3rd grade 5 · Club 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 72 catches + 8 run outs (8 direct, 0 assisted) in 173 matches — 0.46 per match.
- Batting
- 3,902 runs in 176 innings, adjusted average 25.6, strike rate 55.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 80.3 overs across 20 matches bowled in (of 173 played) — 0.05 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
