Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (18 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.50 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 — 2 hundred(s), best of 117.
- ✓ Safe hands — 77 catches in 154 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 9 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting 65 × 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
- ×0.67 for the level played (1st grade 44 · Rep Div 1 20 · 2nd grade 34 · 3rd grade 19 · Club 27 · 4th grade 10). 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: 64 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 154 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- 3,306 runs in 140 innings, adjusted average 27.0, strike rate 67.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 14.0 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 154 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
