Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.7 over 149 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

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 Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.21 dismissals per match across 188 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.5.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.49.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 69 × 30%. 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 (National competition 4 · State competition 4 · Rep Div 1 49 · Club 131). 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: 27 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 188 matches — 0.17 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 149 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
149 wickets in 161 matches bowled in (of 188 played) — 0.93 per match at 14.5, economy 3.49, strike rate 24.9.
