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
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.70.
- ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 34 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 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 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 9 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 15 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 30 innings at 15.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 46 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 1.44 per match at 19.2, economy 3.70, strike rate 31.2.
