Critical recommendations
medium
Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 9% of 50+ scores become hundreds (10 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 118.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.71.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 77 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (State competition 8 · Rep Div 1 4 · Club 80). 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: 24 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 92 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- 1,883 runs in 80 innings, adjusted average 26.2, strike rate 70.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 52 wickets in 51 matches bowled in (of 92 played) — 1.02 per match at 17.9, economy 3.71, strike rate 29.0.
