1st Grade · 2025/26 · 13×4, 4×6 · SR 104

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 76 balls (SR 66), then 50 to 100 in just 55 (SR 91) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 15% of 50+ scores become hundreds (64 fifties, 11 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 30.6.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 11 hundred(s), best of 173.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 158 catches in 447 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 23 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 87 × 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
×0.60 for the level played (State competition 18 · Rep Div 1 11 · Club 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 54 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 157 catches + 23 run outs (19 direct, 4 assisted) in 447 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
11,962 runs in 434 innings, adjusted average 30.6, strike rate 83.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 153 wickets from 890.0 overs across 223 matches bowled in (of 447 played) — 0.69 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
