Chappelow Cup · 2025/26 · 6×4, 3×6 · SR 90

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 65 balls (SR 77), then 50 to 100 in just 45 (SR 111) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

high Fielding
Catching return too low for selection

Only 0.06 catches per match over 62 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.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.3.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.58.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 6 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 76 × 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 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 32 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 62 matches — 0.08 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 53 innings at 16.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
53 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 62 played) — 1.47 per match at 12.3, economy 3.58, strike rate 20.7.
