Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 39.2 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 11% 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
0.44 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 24 catches in 54 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 9 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 38 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.37 for the level played (National competition 5 · Rep Div 1 3 · Club 46). 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: 19 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.39 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 45 innings at 16.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 8 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 0.15 per match at 21.6, economy 4.33, strike rate 30.0.
