Critical recommendations
info
General
No critical flags

- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 51 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting 73 × 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
- ×0.86 for the level played (National competition 10 · 1st grade 34 · Club 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 46 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.41 per match.
- Batting
- 1,256 runs in 48 innings, adjusted average 28.4, strike rate 73.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 8 wickets from 25.8 overs across 11 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 0.16 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
