Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 53.4 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (12 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.46 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 106 catches in 228 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 11 run outs.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 8 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 42 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.37 for the level played (Rep Div 1 24 · 2nd grade 19 · 3rd grade 16 · Rep Div 2 4 · Club 111 · 4th grade 32 · 5th grade and below 22). 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: 57 catches + 11 run outs (11 direct, 0 assisted) in 228 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 200 innings at 17.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
54 wickets in 76 matches bowled in (of 228 played) — 0.24 per match at 20.3, economy 3.54, strike rate 34.4.
