Critical recommendations
0.60 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 — 2 hundred(s), best of 111.
- ✓ Safe hands — 34 catches in 57 matches (0.60 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 65 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling 31 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.43 for the level played (2nd grade 16 · Club 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 38 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 34 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 57 matches — 0.67 per match.
- Batting
- 1,474 runs in 60 innings, adjusted average 28.7, strike rate 72.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 23 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 57 played) — 1.00 per match at 20.4, economy 4.29, strike rate 28.6.
