Fourth Grade (Reid Cup) · 2025/26 · 13×4, 3×6 · SR 66

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 87 balls (SR 57), then 50 to 100 in just 86 (SR 58) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 59.0 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 12% of 50+ scores become hundreds (22 fifties, 3 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 123.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 102 catches in 269 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 53 × 40% · Batting 66 × 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
×0.40 for the level played (2nd grade 11 · 3rd grade 13 · Club 13 · 4th grade 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 49 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 95 catches + 6 run outs (5 direct, 1 assisted) in 269 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
5,248 runs in 242 innings, adjusted average 25.4, strike rate 59.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 126 wickets from 615.8 overs across 130 matches bowled in (of 269 played) — 0.97 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
