100 off 90
03. Ballarat Groundworks Championship Division 1 · 2025/26 · 12×4, 1×6 · SR 111

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 60 balls (SR 83), then 50 to 100 in just 29 (SR 172) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.8 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.13 catches per match over 15 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 30.7.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting 59 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 15 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.13 per match.
Batting
376 runs in 14 innings, adjusted average 30.7, strike rate 60.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
