Taper Premier League Division 3 · 2023/24 · 8×4, 5×6 · SR 136

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 43 balls (SR 116), then 50 to 100 in just 30 (SR 167) — more than double the tempo.

  • ● Body of work — 122 imported matches (+2.4)

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 8% of 50+ scores become hundreds (12 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 102.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 43 catches in 122 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting 62 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 27 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 37 catches + 7 run outs (4 direct, 3 assisted) in 122 matches — 0.36 per match.
Batting
2,530 runs in 108 innings, adjusted average 27.8, strike rate 89.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 54 wickets from 292.7 overs across 51 matches bowled in (of 122 played) — 1.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
