The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 67 balls (SR 75), then 50 to 100 in just 44 (SR 114) — more than double the tempo.

- ● Body of work — 49 imported matches (+1.0)
Critical recommendations
Strike rate of 54.5 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.
0.49 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.5.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 160.
- ✓ Safe hands — 24 catches in 49 matches (0.49 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 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 35). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 35 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 24 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.49 per match.
- Batting
- 1,392 runs in 47 innings, adjusted average 31.5, strike rate 54.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 0.3 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 0.02 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
