medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (19 fifties, 3 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 200.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.63.

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 51 × 40% · Batting 87 × 30% · Bowling 44 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.57 for the level played (Rep Div 1 34 · Club 13 · 4th grade 3 · 5th grade and below 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 57 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 46 catches + 8 run outs (3 direct, 5 assisted) in 113 matches — 0.48 per match.
Batting
3,208 runs in 108 innings, adjusted average 32.7, strike rate 76.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
85 wickets in 91 matches bowled in (of 113 played) — 0.93 per match at 22.1, economy 3.63, strike rate 36.6.
