Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (5 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Low overall fielding impact

0.19 dismissals per match across 118 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.51.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting 60 × 30% · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.47 for the level played (1st grade 25 · 2nd grade 36 · 3rd grade 31 · Club 11 · 4th grade 11 · 5th grade and below 4). 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 + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 118 matches — 0.19 per match.
Batting
1,163 runs in 83 innings, adjusted average 19.1, strike rate 83.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
183 wickets in 111 matches bowled in (of 118 played) — 1.65 per match at 20.4, economy 3.51, strike rate 34.8.
