Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.51 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 118.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 31 catches in 61 matches (0.51 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting 64 × 30% · Bowling 24 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.33 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · 2nd grade 3 · Club 56). 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: 23 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.43 per match.
Batting
1,137 runs in 61 innings, adjusted average 21.7, strike rate 79.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
17 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 0.28 per match at 16.7, economy 4.91, strike rate 20.4.
