- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 109.1) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 133.
- ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 18 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 94 × 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 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 8 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- 574 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 33.8, strike rate 109.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 24.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.33 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
