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 Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 7% of 50+ scores become hundreds (13 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 87 × 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
×0.41 for the level played (State competition 1 · 1st grade 25 · Rep Div 1 29 · 2nd grade 38 · Club 196). 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: 240 catches + 87 stumpings + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 289 matches — 1.15 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 264 innings at 17.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 8 wickets from 51.7 overs across 19 matches bowled in (of 289 played) — 0.03 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
