0.65 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

Strengths

  • ✓ Safe hands — 11 catches in 17 matches (0.65 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Sharp glovework — 6 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 60 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
Fielding
Keeping: 11 catches + 6 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 1.00 dismissals per match.
Batting
Not rated: 20 innings at 11.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 1 wicket from 2.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 17 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
