Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 59.3 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
1.35 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 135 catches in 100 matches (1.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 12 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 94 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.57 for the level played (1st grade 12 · Rep Div 1 16 · 2nd grade 45 · 3rd grade 11 · Club 13 · 4th grade 2 · 5th grade and below 1). 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
- Keeping: 118 catches + 12 stumpings + 10 run outs (10 direct, 0 assisted) in 100 matches — 1.40 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,518 runs in 90 innings, adjusted average 21.7, strike rate 59.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 24.5 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 100 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
