The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 51 balls (SR 98), then 50 to 100 in just 33 (SR 152) — more than double the tempo.

mediumBatting

Strengths
✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.5.
✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 134.
✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 67 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 49 × 40% · Batting 84 × 30% · Bowling 39 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.64 for the level played (1st grade 6 · 2nd grade 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 36 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 26 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 67 matches — 0.42 per match.
Batting
1,799 runs in 65 innings, adjusted average 31.5, strike rate 79.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
55 wickets in 50 matches bowled in (of 67 played) — 1.10 per match at 24.4, economy 3.89, strike rate 37.6.
