Critical recommendations
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (8 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.41 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 173.6) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.50.
- ✓ Safe hands — 20 catches in 49 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting 69 × 30% · Bowling 67 × 30%. 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 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 2 run outs (0 direct, 2 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- 1,049 runs in 43 innings, adjusted average 27.2, strike rate 173.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 53 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 1.47 per match at 16.4, economy 3.50, strike rate 28.1.
