KFC SCA 3rd Grade · 2023/24 · 10×4, 6×6 · SR 159

The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 42 balls (SR 119), then 50 to 100 in just 25 (SR 200) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations

medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 10% 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 8% of 50+ scores become hundreds (11 fifties, 1 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.

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

  • ✓ Safe hands — 168 catches in 363 matches (0.46 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 17 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 30%. 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 164 catches + 17 run outs (14 direct, 3 assisted) in 363 matches — 0.50 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 266 innings at 16.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
345 wickets in 296 matches bowled in (of 363 played) — 1.17 per match at 23.6, economy 4.83, strike rate 29.3.
