Low overall fielding impact
0.23 dismissals per match across 80 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 69 × 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 80 matches — 0.21 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 75 innings at 21.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 74 wickets in 63 matches bowled in (of 80 played) — 1.17 per match at 21.9, economy 3.97, strike rate 33.2.
