Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.43 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.27.
- ✓ Safe hands — 54 catches in 126 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 21 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting 53 × 30% · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.54 for the level played (State competition 5 · Rep Div 1 22 · Club 30). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 57 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 46 catches + 21 run outs (4 direct, 17 assisted) in 126 matches — 0.53 per match.
- Batting
- 1,430 runs in 93 innings, adjusted average 20.0, strike rate 71.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 124 wickets in 107 matches bowled in (of 126 played) — 1.16 per match at 13.9, economy 3.27, strike rate 25.4.
