Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 35.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
Out for 0 in 21% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
0.21 dismissals per match across 47 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 13 × 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
- ×0.42 for the level played (Rep Div 1 18 · 2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 9 · Club 15 · 4th grade 4). 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: 7 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 43 innings at 16.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 14.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
