Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.8 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 10% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.03.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 84 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 11 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.53 for the level played (State competition 1 · 1st grade 18 · 2nd grade 40 · Club 25). 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: 28 catches + 11 run outs (11 direct, 0 assisted) in 84 matches — 0.46 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 68 innings at 15.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
80 wickets in 75 matches bowled in (of 84 played) — 1.07 per match at 17.3, economy 3.03, strike rate 34.4.
