The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 63 balls (SR 79), then 50 to 100 in just 45 (SR 111) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations
highBatting
Strike rotation needs urgent work
Strike rate of 64.7 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
mediumBatting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
mediumBatting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 101.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 56 × 30% · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.46 for the level played (2nd grade 15 · 3rd grade 20 · Club 6 · 4th grade 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 44 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 16 catches + 7 run outs (2 direct, 5 assisted) in 76 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
1,221 runs in 65 innings, adjusted average 22.5, strike rate 64.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
70 wickets in 63 matches bowled in (of 76 played) — 1.11 per match at 18.9, economy 4.15, strike rate 27.3.
