The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 43 balls (SR 116), then 50 to 100 in just 38 (SR 132) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations
0.9 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.47 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 99.3) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 104.
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 34 matches (0.47 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting 64 × 30% · Bowling 44 × 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 15 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.47 per match.
- Batting
- 919 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 29.3, strike rate 99.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 13 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 0.38 per match at 13.3, economy 5.49, strike rate 14.5.
