Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 9% of 50+ scores become hundreds (32 fifties, 3 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

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

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 97 catches in 166 matches (0.58 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 10 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 9 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 48 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 166 matches — 0.29 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 187 innings at 28.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 15 wickets from 57.0 overs across 15 matches bowled in (of 166 played) — 0.09 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
