Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (10 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.77 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 111.8) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.4.
- ✓ Safe hands — 56 catches in 73 matches (0.77 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 74 × 40% · Batting 54 × 30% · Bowling 69 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 39). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 39 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 56 catches + 6 run outs (2 direct, 4 assisted) in 73 matches — 0.85 per match.
- Batting
- 1,433 runs in 62 innings, adjusted average 28.3, strike rate 111.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 66 wickets in 62 matches bowled in (of 73 played) — 1.06 per match at 17.5, economy 3.96, strike rate 26.4.
