info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.49 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.8.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.89.
- ✓ Safe hands — 41 catches in 84 matches (0.49 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.26 for the level played (Club 58 · 4th grade 10 · 5th grade and below 16). 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: 41 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 84 matches — 0.49 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 61 innings at 14.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 119 wickets in 79 matches bowled in (of 84 played) — 1.51 per match at 15.8, economy 2.89, strike rate 32.7.
