Critical recommendations
1.1 wides/no-balls per over is gifting runs and momentum. Groove the run-up and release with target bowling — a cone on a 4th-stump line, 30+ balls per session.
Only 0% of 50+ scores become hundreds (4 fifties, 0 hundreds). Practise batting in long blocks and resetting targets at 50.
0.60 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 30.8.
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 91.7) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 47 matches (0.60 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 60 × 40% · Batting 67 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.45 for the level played (Rep Div 1 12 · Club 26). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 38 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 25 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.60 per match.
- Batting
- 958 runs in 45 innings, adjusted average 30.8, strike rate 91.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 30 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 0.68 per match at 15.1, economy 3.44, strike rate 26.3.
