Not converting fifties into hundreds

Strengths

  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.60.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 36 catches in 71 matches (0.51 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting 46 × 30% · Bowling 51 × 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 71). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
Fielding
Outfield: 31 catches + 7 run outs (7 direct, 0 assisted) in 71 matches — 0.54 per match.
