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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.60.
- ✓ Safe hands — 16 catches in 32 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 62 × 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 32). 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: 16 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 32 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 16.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 32 played) — 1.00 per match at 15.3, economy 3.60, strike rate 25.5.
