The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 42 balls (SR 119), then 50 to 100 in just 36 (SR 139) — more than double the tempo.

- ● Body of work — 49 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.51 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 99.4) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 105.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.4.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 49 matches (0.51 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting 75 × 30% · Bowling 61 × 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 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 5 run outs (1 direct, 4 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- 1,057 runs in 50 innings, adjusted average 24.1, strike rate 99.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 0.45 per match at 16.4, economy 4.20, strike rate 23.5.
