Peter Shepherd
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 56 balls (SR 89), then 50 to 100 in just 32 (SR 156) — more than double the tempo.
Representative pathway — 2 pathway points in the overall rating
- ● Regional representative — 12 matches (+1.8)
- ● Body of work — 34 imported matches (+0.7)
Critical recommendations
Going at 7.52 an over. Tighten the stock ball: hit a consistent length, cut out the 4-ball (short and wide / overpitched on the pads).
Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (6 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 106.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting 68 × 30% · Bowling 19 × 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 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 32 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- 852 runs in 33 innings, adjusted average 29.0, strike rate 79.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 7 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 0.44 per match at 55.7, economy 7.52, strike rate 44.4.
