Critical recommendations

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 85 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
×0.36 for the level played (State competition 5 · Rep Div 1 11 · 3rd grade 1 · Rep Div 2 4 · Club 58). 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: 80 catches + 19 stumpings + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 79 matches — 1.32 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 77 innings at 18.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
