The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 75 balls (SR 67), then 50 to 100 in just 58 (SR 86) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations
mediumBatting
Not converting fifties into hundreds
Only 7% of 50+ scores become hundreds (14 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
infoFielding
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
✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 34.2.
✓ Scores quickly (SR 97.1) without sacrificing consistency.
✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 117.
✓ Safe hands — 41 catches in 90 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 14 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 53 × 40% · Batting 78 × 30% · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.51 for the level played (1st grade 16 · 2nd grade 1 · Club 22 · 5th grade and below 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 42 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 41 catches + 14 run outs (9 direct, 5 assisted) in 90 matches — 0.61 per match.
Batting
2,184 runs in 75 innings, adjusted average 34.2, strike rate 97.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
65 wickets in 64 matches bowled in (of 90 played) — 1.02 per match at 21.8, economy 4.54, strike rate 28.8.
