Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 62.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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 — 2 hundred(s), best of 135.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.71.
- ✓ Safe hands — 46 catches in 101 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 13 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 52 × 30% · Bowling 51 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.58 for the level played (National competition 6 · State competition 3 · Rep Div 1 7 · 2nd grade 6 · 3rd grade 12 · Club 1 · 4th grade 3 · 5th grade and below 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 43 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 45 catches + 13 run outs (2 direct, 11 assisted) in 101 matches — 0.57 per match.
- Batting
- 1,945 runs in 87 innings, adjusted average 28.0, strike rate 62.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 93 wickets in 80 matches bowled in (of 101 played) — 1.16 per match at 18.3, economy 3.71, strike rate 29.6.
