Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 13.0 over 71 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 18% 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
0.79 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 67 catches in 85 matches (0.79 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 10 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 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
- ×0.61 for the level played (1st grade 4 · 2nd grade 18 · 3rd grade 2 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 60 catches + 10 stumpings + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 85 matches — 0.86 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 71 innings at 13.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 2.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 85 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
