  • ✓ Safe hands — 24 catches in 57 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting 75 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 27 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 19 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 57 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
1,753 runs in 61 innings, adjusted average 29.7, strike rate 109.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 0 wickets from 4.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 57 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
