Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 8% of 50+ scores become hundreds (12 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 117.9) without sacrificing consistency.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 146.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.8.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 18 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 56 matches (0.52 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting 85 × 30% · Bowling 75 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.43 for the level played (State competition 3 · Rep Div 1 7 · Club 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 29 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 56 matches — 0.59 per match.
Batting
1,424 runs in 54 innings, adjusted average 29.8, strike rate 117.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
32 wickets in 34 matches bowled in (of 56 played) — 0.94 per match at 11.8, economy 4.03, strike rate 17.5.
