The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 82 balls (SR 61), then 50 to 100 in just 48 (SR 104) — more than double the tempo.

✓ Safe hands — 24 catches in 67 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting 77 × 30% · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.64 for the level played (1st grade 4 · 2nd grade 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 28 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 24 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 67 matches — 0.37 per match.
Batting
985 runs in 55 innings, adjusted average 21.5, strike rate 74.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
47 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 67 played) — 1.21 per match at 18.2, economy 3.71, strike rate 29.4.
