Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 62.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (12 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 125 catches in 174 matches (0.72 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 69 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 88 × 40% · Batting 53 × 30% · 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
×0.44 for the level played (State competition 10 · Rep Div 1 43 · Rep Div 2 14 · Club 105 · 5th grade and below 2). 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: 110 catches + 69 stumpings + 9 run outs (9 direct, 0 assisted) in 174 matches — 1.08 dismissals per match.
Batting
2,927 runs in 166 innings, adjusted average 23.5, strike rate 62.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 44 wickets from 146.0 overs across 54 matches bowled in (of 174 played) — 0.25 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
