Critical recommendations
high
Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 44.4 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 14% 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
0.24 dismissals per match across 88 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 126.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting 46 × 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
- ×0.48 for the level played (State competition 3 · 1st grade 43 · 2nd grade 1 · Club 40 · 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
- Outfield: 20 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 88 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- 2,120 runs in 89 innings, adjusted average 26.5, strike rate 44.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 21.0 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 88 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
