Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 10 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 29). 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
- Keeping: 11 catches + 2 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.45 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 23 innings at 17.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
