info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.44 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 179.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.31.
- ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 50 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 52 × 40% · Batting 67 × 30% · Bowling 63 × 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 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- 813 runs in 51 innings, adjusted average 19.7, strike rate 81.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 96 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 2.09 per match at 14.2, economy 3.31, strike rate 25.6.
