info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.43.
- ✓ Safe hands — 32 catches in 80 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 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 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 30 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 80 matches — 0.42 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 32 innings at 12.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 90 wickets in 76 matches bowled in (of 80 played) — 1.18 per match at 18.8, economy 3.43, strike rate 32.9.
