Fourth Grade (Reid Cup) · 2025/26 · 12×4, 1×6 · SR 81

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 69 balls (SR 72), then 50 to 100 in just 56 (SR 89) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 48.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 16% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.59 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 — 6 hundred(s), best of 116.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 53 catches in 90 matches (0.59 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting 60 × 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
×0.34 for the level played (3rd grade 12 · 4th grade 17 · 5th grade and below 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 30 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 53 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 90 matches — 0.63 per match.
Batting
1,873 runs in 81 innings, adjusted average 26.8, strike rate 48.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 23 wickets from 96.0 overs across 22 matches bowled in (of 90 played) — 0.26 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
