info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.50 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 41.2.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 110.
- ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 34 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 71 × 40% · Batting 84 × 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.53 per match.
- Batting
- 1,148 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 41.2, strike rate 65.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
