Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 46.1 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

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 12.2.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.39.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 57 catches in 141 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 14 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.56 for the level played (National competition 5 · State competition 21 · 1st grade 29 · Rep Div 1 1 · 2nd grade 1 · Club 84). 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: 54 catches + 14 run outs (14 direct, 0 assisted) in 141 matches — 0.48 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 109 innings at 19.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
154 wickets in 132 matches bowled in (of 141 played) — 1.17 per match at 12.2, economy 2.39, strike rate 30.5.
