Critical recommendations
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 50.6.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 4 hundred(s), best of 169.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.4.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.55.
- ✓ Safe hands — 28 catches in 56 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 60 × 40% · Batting 78 × 30% · Bowling 61 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 28 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 56 matches — 0.55 per match.
- Batting
- 1,965 runs in 51 innings, adjusted average 50.6, strike rate 67.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 76 wickets in 49 matches bowled in (of 56 played) — 1.55 per match at 17.4, economy 3.55, strike rate 29.4.
