Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 119.0) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 103.
- ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 15 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting 70 × 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
- Outfield: 5 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- 318 runs in 13 innings, adjusted average 28.2, strike rate 119.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 4 wickets from 8.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 0.27 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
