Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 63.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 29% 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

0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 102.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 16 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting 55 × 30% · 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 (State competition 5 · 3rd grade 5 · 4th grade 3 · 5th grade and below 3). 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: 5 catches + 0 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.38 dismissals per match.
Batting
306 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 21.2, strike rate 63.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 0 wickets from 3.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
