Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 7% of 50+ scores become hundreds (14 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Economy of 3.91 is excellent but a wicket every 46 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
0.45 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 30.9.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 97.0) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 279.
- ✓ Safe hands — 41 catches in 92 matches (0.45 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.37 for the level played (1st grade 8 · Rep Div 1 5 · Club 79). 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: 36 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 92 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- 2,580 runs in 98 innings, adjusted average 30.9, strike rate 97.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 25 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 92 played) — 0.68 per match at 30.0, economy 3.91, strike rate 46.0.
