Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 13.2 over 77 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 13% 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

0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.00.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 38 catches in 96 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 (National competition 5 · Club 91). 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: 38 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 96 matches — 0.45 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 77 innings at 13.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
127 wickets in 88 matches bowled in (of 96 played) — 1.44 per match at 18.4, economy 3.00, strike rate 36.8.
