Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 61.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

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 Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 7% of 50+ scores become hundreds (14 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.23 dismissals per match across 241 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.86 for the level played (National competition 77 · State competition 3 · 1st grade 80 · Rep Div 1 17 · 2nd grade 30 · Club 28 · 4th grade 2 · 5th grade and below 4). 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: 49 catches + 7 run outs (7 direct, 0 assisted) in 241 matches — 0.23 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 159 innings at 22.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
287 wickets in 184 matches bowled in (of 241 played) — 1.56 per match at 21.8, economy 3.93, strike rate 33.3.
