info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.71 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 35.0.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 149.
- ✓ Safe hands — 50 catches in 70 matches (0.71 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 64 × 40% · Batting 85 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 49 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 70 matches — 0.71 per match.
- Batting
- 2,404 runs in 76 innings, adjusted average 35.0, strike rate 67.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 14.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 70 played) — 0.07 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
