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 Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.47 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 137.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 32 catches in 58 matches (0.55 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 5 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting 61 × 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
×0.34 for the level played (3rd grade 11 · Club 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 34 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 22 catches + 5 stumpings + 5 run outs (1 direct, 4 assisted) in 58 matches — 0.55 dismissals per match.
Batting
1,512 runs in 59 innings, adjusted average 27.8, strike rate 71.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 1 wicket from 3.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 58 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
