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.

Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.70 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 102.8) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 103.
- ✓ Safe hands — 55 catches in 79 matches (0.70 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 13 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 67 × 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
- ×0.38 for the level played (1st grade 3 · Rep Div 1 11 · Club 65). 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: 34 catches + 13 stumpings + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 79 matches — 0.62 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,727 runs in 80 innings, adjusted average 24.6, strike rate 102.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 5.7 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 79 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
