Critical recommendations

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% 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 2.86 is excellent but a wicket every 45 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.44 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 2.86.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 21 catches in 48 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.83 for the level played (1st grade 31 · Club 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 32 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 21 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.46 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 40 innings at 16.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
70 wickets in 45 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 1.56 per match at 21.6, economy 2.86, strike rate 45.3.
