Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 50.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (11 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 43 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 89 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
×0.74 for the level played (1st grade 177 · Rep Div 1 15 · 2nd grade 5 · 3rd grade 14 · Club 40). 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: 248 catches + 43 stumpings + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 251 matches — 1.18 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 223 innings at 18.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 5 wickets from 27.3 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 251 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
