Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 13% 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 — 37 catches in 107 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.52 for the level played (1st grade 11 · 2nd grade 31 · 3rd grade 28 · Club 29 · 4th grade 8). 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: 37 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 107 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 101 innings at 18.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 103 wickets in 81 matches bowled in (of 107 played) — 1.27 per match at 21.8, economy 4.01, strike rate 32.7.
