Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 12.5 over 58 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Bowling
Conceding too many extras

0.9 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.21 dismissals per match across 91 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 43 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.83 for the level played (National competition 17 · State competition 6 · 1st grade 29 · Club 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 53 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 17 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 91 matches — 0.21 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 58 innings at 12.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
76 wickets in 84 matches bowled in (of 91 played) — 0.90 per match at 28.1, economy 5.31, strike rate 31.7.
