Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 51.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 17% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.51 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 53 catches in 104 matches (0.51 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 104). 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: 32 catches + 4 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 104 matches — 0.36 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 96 innings at 16.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 20 wickets from 106.3 overs across 37 matches bowled in (of 104 played) — 0.19 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
