Mens 1st Grade · 2025/26 · 21×4, 3×6 · SR 75

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 93 balls (SR 54), then 50 to 100 in just 86 (SR 58) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 56.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.59 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 37.7.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 187.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 60 catches in 101 matches (0.59 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 12 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 71 × 40% · Batting 82 × 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
×0.86 for the level played (National competition 3 · 1st grade 49). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 52 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 58 catches + 12 run outs (7 direct, 5 assisted) in 101 matches — 0.69 per match.
Batting
3,153 runs in 101 innings, adjusted average 37.7, strike rate 56.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 21 wickets from 103.0 overs across 20 matches bowled in (of 101 played) — 0.21 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
