Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

0.15 dismissals per match across 46 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.33.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 6 × 40% · Batting 38 × 30% · Bowling 61 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.30 for the level played (Club 46). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
Fielding
Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.13 per match.
Batting
877 runs in 41 innings, adjusted average 24.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
34 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 1.48 per match at 13.3, economy 3.33, strike rate 24.0.
