Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 14.8 over 62 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.59 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 44 catches in 74 matches (0.59 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 18 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 85 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.59 for the level played (1st grade 10 · Rep Div 1 25 · 2nd grade 27 · 3rd grade 7 · Club 4 · 4th grade 1). 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
- Keeping: 39 catches + 18 stumpings + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 74 matches — 0.80 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 62 innings at 14.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 14.0 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 74 played) — 0.05 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
