Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 52.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 13% of 50+ scores become hundreds (13 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.97 is excellent but a wicket every 41 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.44 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 — 2 hundred(s), best of 118.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 78 catches in 177 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · Bowling 19 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.63 for the level played (National competition 5 · 1st grade 58 · 2nd grade 106 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 5 · 4th grade 1). 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: 78 catches + 8 run outs (8 direct, 0 assisted) in 177 matches — 0.49 per match.
Batting
3,212 runs in 180 innings, adjusted average 20.4, strike rate 52.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
73 wickets in 65 matches bowled in (of 177 played) — 0.41 per match at 27.3, economy 3.97, strike rate 41.3.
