Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 39.5 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 15% 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 (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 139 catches in 120 matches (1.16 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 18 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 95 × 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
×0.74 for the level played (1st grade 115 · Club 5). 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: 126 catches + 18 stumpings + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 120 matches — 1.23 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 119 innings at 15.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 1 wicket from 3.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 120 played) — 0.01 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
