Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 43.9 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 15% 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.57 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.30.
- ✓ Safe hands — 58 catches in 101 matches (0.57 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 8 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · Club 76 · 4th grade 1 · 5th grade and below 17). 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: 35 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 101 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 89 innings at 16.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 64 wickets in 62 matches bowled in (of 101 played) — 1.03 per match at 20.0, economy 3.30, strike rate 36.4.
