Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 52 catches in 150 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.57 for the level played (National competition 34 · 1st grade 13 · Rep Div 1 24 · 2nd grade 17 · 3rd grade 8 · Club 54). 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: 51 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 150 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 107 innings at 16.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 159 wickets in 123 matches bowled in (of 150 played) — 1.29 per match at 22.2, economy 3.81, strike rate 34.9.
