Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 65.0 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

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.4.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 72 catches in 182 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.53 for the level played (State competition 3 · Rep Div 1 13 · 3rd grade 10 · Club 4 · 4th grade 10). 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: 72 catches + 10 run outs (8 direct, 2 assisted) in 182 matches — 0.45 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 154 innings at 18.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
150 wickets in 163 matches bowled in (of 182 played) — 0.92 per match at 17.4, economy 4.08, strike rate 25.6.
