Critical recommendations
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.61 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 39 catches in 64 matches (0.61 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 13 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 76 × 40% · Batting 51 × 30% · Bowling 33 × 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 64). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 31 catches + 13 run outs (13 direct, 0 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.69 per match.
- Batting
- 958 runs in 58 innings, adjusted average 24.8, strike rate 70.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 0.46 per match at 22.0, economy 4.34, strike rate 30.4.
