Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 49.7 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 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.35 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.46 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 30 catches in 65 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 6 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 48 × 40% · Batting 55 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 65). 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
Keeping: 17 catches + 6 stumpings + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.42 dismissals per match.
Batting
1,001 runs in 58 innings, adjusted average 23.5, strike rate 49.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 14 wickets from 109.0 overs across 36 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 0.39 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
