info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.2.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.48.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 31 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 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 31). 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
- Outfield: 13 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 8.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 26 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 0.93 per match at 14.2, economy 3.48, strike rate 24.5.
