info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.53 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 47 matches (0.53 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 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
- ×0.42 for the level played (1st grade 5 · 2nd grade 11 · 3rd grade 11 · Club 7 · 4th grade 13). 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 + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 16.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 24.0 overs across 7 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
