info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.42 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 59 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 13 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 60 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · Club 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 39 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 25 catches + 13 run outs (7 direct, 6 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.64 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 15.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 60 wickets in 50 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 1.20 per match at 20.4, economy 5.16, strike rate 23.8.
