Critical recommendations
Only 8% of 50+ scores become hundreds (12 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 124.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.58.
- ✓ Safe hands — 37 catches in 92 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 53 × 30% · Bowling 70 × 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 (Rep Div 1 13 · 2nd grade 2 · 3rd grade 16 · Club 4 · 4th grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 37 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 37 catches + 7 run outs (5 direct, 2 assisted) in 92 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- 2,241 runs in 91 innings, adjusted average 28.1, strike rate 84.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 38 wickets in 41 matches bowled in (of 92 played) — 0.93 per match at 15.0, economy 3.58, strike rate 25.2.
