Critical recommendations
mediumBatting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (15 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
✓ Scores quickly (SR 136.4) without sacrificing consistency.
✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 137.
✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.0.
✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.35.
✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
✓ Safe hands — 53 catches in 150 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 16 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting 78 × 30% · Bowling 70 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.72 for the level played (State competition 12 · 1st grade 10 · Rep Div 1 20 · Club 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 54 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 53 catches + 16 run outs (10 direct, 6 assisted) in 150 matches — 0.46 per match.
Batting
2,957 runs in 134 innings, adjusted average 27.8, strike rate 136.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
121 wickets in 126 matches bowled in (of 150 played) — 0.96 per match at 14.0, economy 3.35, strike rate 25.0.
