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
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.21 dismissals per match across 71 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 107.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.70.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.35 for the level played (2nd grade 3 · 3rd grade 12 · Club 32 · 4th grade 1 · 5th grade and below 23). 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: 15 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 71 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- 1,378 runs in 68 innings, adjusted average 20.9, strike rate 82.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 48 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 71 played) — 1.30 per match at 19.2, economy 3.70, strike rate 31.1.
