Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 11% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 30.6.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 112.
- ✓ Safe hands — 27 catches in 72 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 70 × 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
- ×0.29 for the level played (3rd grade 5 · Club 30 · 4th grade 32 · 5th grade and below 5). 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: 27 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 72 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- 1,851 runs in 73 innings, adjusted average 30.6, strike rate 77.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 14.5 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 72 played) — 0.07 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
