Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 49.5 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
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 117.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 46 × 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
- ×0.66 for the level played (1st grade 96 · Rep Div 1 46 · 2nd grade 12 · 3rd grade 4 · Club 16 · 4th grade 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: 32 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 175 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- 3,190 runs in 169 innings, adjusted average 20.7, strike rate 49.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 14 wickets from 74.8 overs across 19 matches bowled in (of 175 played) — 0.08 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
