info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.97 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 36 catches in 37 matches (0.97 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 6 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 68 × 40% · Batting 48 × 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
- ×0.52 for the level played (Rep Div 1 10 · Club 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 18 catches + 6 stumpings + 7 run outs (1 direct, 6 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.84 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 617 runs in 31 innings, adjusted average 25.7, strike rate 75.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
