The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 79 balls (SR 63), then 50 to 100 in just 69 (SR 72) — more than double the tempo.

- ● Body of work — 15 imported matches (+0.3)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.6.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting 75 × 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 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 8 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- 414 runs in 16 innings, adjusted average 35.6, strike rate 67.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 9 wickets from 30.3 overs across 6 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 1.50 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
