Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% 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 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.97 is excellent but a wicket every 43 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 124 catches in 342 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 13 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 35 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.82 for the level played (National competition 53 · State competition 5 · 1st grade 196 · Rep Div 1 56 · 2nd grade 1 · Club 31). 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: 124 catches + 13 run outs (13 direct, 0 assisted) in 342 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 288 innings at 16.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
461 wickets in 326 matches bowled in (of 342 played) — 1.41 per match at 28.7, economy 3.97, strike rate 43.3.
