Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.1 over 74 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
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
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.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.21 dismissals per match across 110 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 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.74 for the level played (National competition 23 · 1st grade 55 · 2nd grade 12 · 3rd grade 10 · Club 10). 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: 18 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 110 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 74 innings at 14.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 120 wickets in 92 matches bowled in (of 110 played) — 1.30 per match at 25.9, economy 4.28, strike rate 36.3.
