Senior Mens 1st Grade · 2022/23 · 14×4, 2×6 · SR 63

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 99 balls (SR 51), then 50 to 100 in just 70 (SR 71) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 60.3 means long dot-ball chains and pressure on partners. Drill singles into gaps, soft-hand placement, and calling.

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 12% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds

Only 14% of 50+ scores become hundreds (12 fifties, 2 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

medium Fielding
Keeping dismissal rate below par

0.15 keeping dismissals (WK catches + stumpings) per match. Work standing-up takes and leg-side stumpings — the fastest way for a keeper to add value.

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.46 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 133.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 104 catches in 228 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 15 run outs.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 10 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 7 × 40% · Batting 51 × 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 29 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 80 catches + 15 run outs (13 direct, 2 assisted) in 228 matches — 0.42 per match.
Batting
3,391 runs in 224 innings, adjusted average 17.0, strike rate 60.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 76 wickets from 332.2 overs across 91 matches bowled in (of 228 played) — 0.33 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
