Critical recommendations
0.50 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.

- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 114.8) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 155.

- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 40% · Batting 96 × 30% · Bowling 43 × 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 17 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.46 per match.
- Batting
- 1,037 runs in 24 innings, adjusted average 48.6, strike rate 114.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
