Critical recommendations
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 2.99 is excellent but a wicket every 61 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.99.
- ✓ Safe hands — 23 catches in 57 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 26 × 40% · Batting 47 × 30% · Bowling 35 × 30%. 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 (State competition 1 · 1st grade 2 · 2nd grade 7 · Club 47). 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: 23 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 57 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- 984 runs in 50 innings, adjusted average 24.8, strike rate 71.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 59 wickets in 56 matches bowled in (of 57 played) — 1.05 per match at 30.4, economy 2.99, strike rate 61.1.
