Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 33 × 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 (National competition 8 · State competition 1 · 1st grade 2 · Rep Div 1 4 · 2nd grade 13 · Club 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 26 catches + 10 run outs (4 direct, 6 assisted) in 111 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 91 innings at 15.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 61 wickets in 78 matches bowled in (of 111 played) — 0.78 per match at 20.9, economy 5.04, strike rate 24.9.
