Critical recommendations

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.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 7% of 50+ scores become hundreds (14 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting 47 × 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
×0.53 for the level played (1st grade 36 · 2nd grade 47 · 3rd grade 9 · Club 32). 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: 72 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 124 matches — 0.60 per match.
Batting
2,687 runs in 128 innings, adjusted average 22.0, strike rate 78.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 5 wickets from 85.7 overs across 19 matches bowled in (of 124 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
