The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 55 balls (SR 91), then 50 to 100 in just 49 (SR 102) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 1 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Body of work — 28 imported matches (+0.6)
Critical recommendations
21 of 26 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
1.04 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 39.7.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 99.2) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 104.
- ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 28 matches (1.04 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 6 stumpings.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 90 × 40% · Batting 81 × 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 29 catches + 6 stumpings + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 28 matches — 1.36 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,038 runs in 28 innings, adjusted average 39.7, strike rate 99.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 7.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.07 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
