medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (14 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding

  • ✓ Safe hands — 108 catches in 162 matches (0.67 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 9 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 74 × 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
×0.60 for the level played (2nd grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 2 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 59 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 162 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
3,309 runs in 160 innings, adjusted average 24.4, strike rate 65.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 5 wickets from 48.7 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 162 played) — 0.03 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
