Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.3 over 265 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.37 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.37.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 144 catches in 394 matches (0.37 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 56 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 41 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×1.00 for the level played (National competition 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 20 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 143 catches + 10 run outs (8 direct, 2 assisted) in 394 matches — 0.39 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 265 innings at 10.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
791 wickets in 355 matches bowled in (of 394 played) — 2.23 per match at 23.0, economy 3.37, strike rate 41.0.
