137 off 132
Senior B04 · 2024/25 · 10×4, 8×6 · SR 104

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 70 balls (SR 71), then 50 to 100 in just 39 (SR 128) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

39 of 55 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.16 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.4.
  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 94.2) without sacrificing consistency.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 5 hundred(s), best of 162.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 72 × 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 37). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 37 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 15 catches + 5 run outs (3 direct, 2 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.31 per match.
Batting
1,755 runs in 63 innings, adjusted average 31.4, strike rate 94.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 35 wickets from 187.7 overs across 32 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 1.09 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
