Critical recommendations
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Effective lower-order runs — adjusted average 39.5 (frequently not out).
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 94.0) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 11.5.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 17 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 48 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting 72 × 30% · Bowling 71 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.35 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.42 per match.
- Batting
- 1,137 runs in 48 innings, adjusted average 39.5, strike rate 94.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 40 wickets in 45 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 0.89 per match at 11.5, economy 4.02, strike rate 17.2.
