Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
7 of 9 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.21 dismissals per match across 19 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 51.1 (frequently not out).
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting 65 × 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
- ×0.32 for the level played (State competition 1 · Club 18). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- 613 runs in 18 innings, adjusted average 51.1, strike rate 76.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 40.0 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 0.21 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
