Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (7 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.61 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 95.8) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Safe hands — 67 catches in 109 matches (0.61 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting 55 × 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 13 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 42 catches + 3 stumpings + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 109 matches — 0.44 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,949 runs in 104 innings, adjusted average 21.8, strike rate 95.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 24.0 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 109 played) — 0.07 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
