Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.53.
- ✓ Safe hands — 35 catches in 92 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.49 for the level played (Rep Div 1 16 · Club 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 41 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 35 catches + 6 run outs (5 direct, 1 assisted) in 92 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 75 innings at 18.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 75 wickets in 76 matches bowled in (of 92 played) — 0.99 per match at 15.5, economy 3.53, strike rate 26.3.
