info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.68 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 22 matches (0.68 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 75 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.41 for the level played (1st grade 2 · 2nd grade 9 · 3rd grade 4 · 4th grade 5 · 5th grade and below 2). 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: 15 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 0.77 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 20.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 35 wickets in 21 matches bowled in (of 22 played) — 1.67 per match at 19.7, economy 4.34, strike rate 27.3.
