Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 9.1 over 45 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
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.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.20 dismissals per match across 86 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 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.85 for the level played (National competition 2 · State competition 2 · 1st grade 50 · 2nd grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 55 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 15 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 86 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 45 innings at 9.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 116 wickets in 78 matches bowled in (of 86 played) — 1.49 per match at 26.7, economy 4.82, strike rate 33.2.
