Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 33.7.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 94.3) without sacrificing consistency.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting 80 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- 676 runs in 21 innings, adjusted average 33.7, strike rate 94.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 21.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.22 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
