Critical recommendations

high Batting
Getting starts but not surviving

Adjusted average of 14.2 over 134 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Bowling
Tight but not threatening

Economy of 3.81 is excellent but a wicket every 49 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 67 catches in 194 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 27 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.60 for the level played (State competition 7 · 1st grade 107 · Rep Div 1 4 · 2nd grade 38 · Club 38). 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: 67 catches + 10 run outs (10 direct, 0 assisted) in 194 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 134 innings at 14.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
226 wickets in 182 matches bowled in (of 194 played) — 1.24 per match at 31.2, economy 3.81, strike rate 49.1.
