0.19 dismissals per match across 43 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 9 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 43 matches — 0.14 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 17.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 43 wickets in 43 matches — 1.00 per match at 23.5, economy 4.29, strike rate 32.8.
