Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (17 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 53 × 40% · Batting 86 × 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
- ×0.41 for the level played (1st grade 2 · 3rd grade 45 · 4th grade 15). 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: 33 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 62 matches — 0.55 per match.
- Batting
- 2,318 runs in 61 innings, adjusted average 52.3, strike rate 68.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 18.5 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 62 played) — 0.05 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
