Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 10.6 over 67 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

high Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball

27 of 52 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 18% 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

0.20 dismissals per match across 88 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.02.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.51 for the level played (State competition 7 · Rep Div 1 12 · Club 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 48 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 16 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 88 matches — 0.20 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 67 innings at 10.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
68 wickets in 78 matches bowled in (of 88 played) — 0.87 per match at 19.8, economy 3.02, strike rate 39.3.
