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 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.97 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 14 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 36 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.68 for the level played (National competition 4 · 1st grade 119 · Rep Div 1 2 · 2nd grade 77 · 3rd grade 12 · Club 35). 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: 85 catches + 14 run outs (14 direct, 0 assisted) in 249 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 195 innings at 18.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
303 wickets in 222 matches bowled in (of 249 played) — 1.36 per match at 28.6, economy 3.97, strike rate 43.2.
