Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 49.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.79 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 — 3 hundred(s), best of 120.
- ✓ Safe hands — 66 catches in 84 matches (0.79 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting 45 × 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
- ×0.68 for the level played (1st grade 60 · 2nd grade 13 · 3rd grade 8 · Club 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
- Outfield: 37 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 84 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- 2,084 runs in 84 innings, adjusted average 28.9, strike rate 49.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 30.0 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 84 played) — 0.01 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
