Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 52.2 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 14% 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (16 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.47 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 75 catches in 161 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting 55 × 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
×0.62 for the level played (1st grade 4 · 2nd grade 25 · 3rd grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 31 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 44 catches + 5 run outs (2 direct, 3 assisted) in 161 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
2,880 runs in 167 innings, adjusted average 18.8, strike rate 52.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 26 wickets from 165.5 overs across 38 matches bowled in (of 161 played) — 0.16 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
