Chris Nilon
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 24 balls (SR 208), then 50 to 100 in just 23 (SR 217) — more than double the tempo.

- ● Body of work — 26 imported matches (+0.5)
Critical recommendations
Only 0.12 catches per match over 26 matches. Fielding is the first thing selectors compare when batting/bowling are close — make catching the priority: 30 high balls + 30 flat catches per session, and ask to field in the ring/slips where chances come.
Out for 0 in 11% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 155.7) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 100.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 11 × 40% · Batting 70 × 30% · Bowling 53 × 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- 422 runs in 18 innings, adjusted average 30.0, strike rate 155.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 24 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 1.08 per match at 22.4, economy 4.43, strike rate 30.4.
