Batting

Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 97.5) without sacrificing consistency.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting 61 × 30% · Bowling 55 × 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 33). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 33 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- 1,101 runs in 52 innings, adjusted average 22.4, strike rate 97.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 25 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 1.28 per match at 20.6, economy 4.71, strike rate 26.2.
