info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.55 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 29 matches (0.55 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 57 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.69 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 21 innings at 15.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 33 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 1.18 per match at 19.0, economy 4.67, strike rate 24.4.
