Only 11% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
1.57 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 111.
- ✓ Safe hands — 83 catches in 53 matches (1.57 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 15 run outs.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 7 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 76 × 40% · Batting 81 × 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
- ×0.32 for the level played (3rd grade 6 · Club 1 · 4th grade 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 68 catches + 7 stumpings + 15 run outs (1 direct, 14 assisted) in 53 matches — 1.70 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,372 runs in 51 innings, adjusted average 31.1, strike rate 82.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 3.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
