175 off 188
CNW Men's Second Grade · 2022/23 · 21×4, 4×6 · SR 93

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 92 balls (SR 54), then 50 to 100 in just 55 (SR 91) — more than double the tempo.

Batting Working on Basics

Not enough data

Representative pathway — 3 pathway points in the overall rating

  • ● Body of work — 172 imported matches (+3.4)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 51.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 60 catches in 172 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 11 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 59 catches + 11 run outs (7 direct, 4 assisted) in 172 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 177 innings at 20.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 49 wickets from 207.0 overs across 37 matches bowled in (of 172 played) — 0.28 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
