info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.78 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 137.9) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Safe hands — 14 catches in 18 matches (0.78 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting 64 × 30% · 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 13 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- 344 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 29.8, strike rate 137.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 5 wickets from 20.0 overs across 10 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.50 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
