The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 81 balls (SR 62), then 50 to 100 in just 75 (SR 67) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations
14 of 25 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
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.
0.21 dismissals per match across 29 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 105.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting 68 × 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
- ×0.38 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · 2nd grade 2 · 3rd grade 10 · Club 2 · 4th grade 8 · 5th grade and below 1). 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 29 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- 713 runs in 30 innings, adjusted average 27.7, strike rate 66.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 9.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
