156 off 188
Kookaburra Men's Premier Seconds · 2023/24 · 24×4, 1×6
· SR 83
The story is the acceleration: a measured first fifty off 80 balls (SR 63), then 50 to 100 in just 51 (SR 98) — more than double the tempo.

Critical recommendations
medium
Bowling
Tight but not threatening
Economy of 3.88 is excellent but a wicket every 45 balls is slow. Develop a genuine wicket-taking variation and attack the stumps more.
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.65 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 33.4.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 156.
- ✓ Safe hands — 62 catches in 96 matches (0.65 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 85 × 40% · Batting 52 × 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
- ×0.60 for the level played (1st grade 11 · 2nd grade 10 · Club 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 30 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 62 catches + 6 run outs (4 direct, 2 assisted) in 96 matches — 0.71 per match.
- Batting
- 2,541 runs in 89 innings, adjusted average 33.4, strike rate 70.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 39 wickets from 293.3 overs across 49 matches bowled in (of 96 played) — 0.80 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
