Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 60.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
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.
0.33 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
Strengths
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 13 run outs.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 7 stumpings.
- ✓ Reliable in the field — contributes a dismissal every second match.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting 51 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.46 for the level played (State competition 3 · Rep Div 1 10 · Club 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 43 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 14 catches + 7 stumpings + 13 run outs (1 direct, 12 assisted) in 63 matches — 0.54 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 809 runs in 49 innings, adjusted average 21.6, strike rate 60.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 7 wickets from 48.5 overs across 25 matches bowled in (of 63 played) — 0.11 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
