Critical recommendations

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (26 fifties, 3 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.60 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 30.5.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 124.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 130 catches in 216 matches (0.60 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 54 run outs.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 79 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 71 × 40% · Batting 53 × 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
×0.53 for the level played (Rep Div 1 28 · 3rd grade 10 · Club 26 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 65 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Keeping: 81 catches + 79 stumpings + 54 run outs (8 direct, 46 assisted) in 216 matches — 0.99 dismissals per match.
Batting
5,404 runs in 208 innings, adjusted average 30.5, strike rate 85.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 9 wickets from 38.8 overs across 15 matches bowled in (of 216 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
