Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.5 over 126 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 13% 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 11% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.52 for the level played (National competition 15 · State competition 9 · 1st grade 8 · Rep Div 1 7 · Club 89). 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: 31 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 128 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 126 innings at 14.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 80 wickets in 70 matches bowled in (of 128 played) — 1.14 per match at 18.1, economy 4.32, strike rate 25.2.
