Batting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 10% of 50+ scores become hundreds (9 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.58 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 31.8.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 109.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 33 catches in 57 matches (0.58 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 40% · Batting 61 × 30% · Bowling 42 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.36 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 25 catches + 9 run outs (1 direct, 8 assisted) in 57 matches — 0.60 per match.
- Batting
- 1,691 runs in 57 innings, adjusted average 31.8, strike rate 86.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 57 played) — 0.25 per match at 25.0, economy 6.16, strike rate 24.4.
