Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 51.2 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
14 of 28 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.77 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 30 catches in 39 matches (0.77 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 68 × 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
- ×0.40 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · 3rd grade 4 · Club 26). 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
- Keeping: 25 catches + 4 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.77 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 15.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 21.0 overs across 8 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 0.10 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
