141* off 105
A Grade · 2025/26 · 23×4, 2×6 · SR 134

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 47 balls (SR 106), then 50 to 100 in just 38 (SR 132) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (17 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

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

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 45.7.
  • ✓ Scores quickly (SR 104.4) without sacrificing consistency.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 141.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 30 catches in 60 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 11 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 91 × 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 13 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 19 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.35 per match.
Batting
2,049 runs in 54 innings, adjusted average 45.7, strike rate 104.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 13 wickets from 97.0 overs across 14 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 0.22 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
