Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 46.6 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
0.78 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 101.
- ✓ Safe hands — 51 catches in 65 matches (0.78 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 9 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting 47 × 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
- ×0.62 for the level played (1st grade 7 · Rep Div 1 30 · 2nd grade 9 · 3rd grade 14 · Club 3 · 4th grade 2). 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: 38 catches + 9 stumpings + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.74 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,006 runs in 61 innings, adjusted average 19.5, strike rate 46.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 19.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
