Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.0 over 50 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par
0.40 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 65 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 5 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 (Rep Div 1 30 · 2nd grade 14 · 3rd grade 20 · Club 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: 21 catches + 5 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.42 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 50 innings at 14.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 31.0 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 0.12 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
