Critical recommendations
Only 11% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.38 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
0.41 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 91.3) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 130.
- ✓ Safe hands — 27 catches in 66 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 10 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting 60 × 30% · Bowling 38 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.29 for the level played (2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 10 · Club 2 · 4th grade 31 · 5th grade and below 22). 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: 15 catches + 10 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 66 matches — 0.38 dismissals per match.
