Critical recommendations
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.26 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 37.0.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 6.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.57.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 12 balls.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting 64 × 30% · Bowling 79 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.45 for the level played (Rep Div 1 11 · Club 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 35 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 8 catches + 1 stumpings + 5 run outs (2 direct, 3 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.40 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 741 runs in 29 innings, adjusted average 37.0, strike rate 89.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 28 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 0.80 per match at 6.8, economy 3.57, strike rate 11.5.
