Senior Mens 2nd Grade · 2024/25 · 7×4, 2×6 · SR 43

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 128 balls (SR 39), then 50 to 100 in just 109 (SR 46) — more than double the tempo.

  • ● Body of work — 178 imported matches (+3.6)

Critical recommendations

high Batting
Strike rotation needs urgent work

Strike rate of 42.4 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 8% of 50+ scores become hundreds (11 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 — 66 catches in 178 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 48 × 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 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 32 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 66 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 178 matches — 0.39 per match.
Batting
2,817 runs in 184 innings, adjusted average 17.3, strike rate 42.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 5 wickets from 30.3 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 178 played) — 0.03 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
