Critical recommendations
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.45 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 32 catches in 71 matches (0.45 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 32 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 71 matches — 0.46 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 65 innings at 31.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 44 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 71 played) — 0.96 per match at 26.0, economy 4.67, strike rate 33.4.
