info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 170.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.37.
- ✓ Safe hands — 17 catches in 42 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 69 × 30% · Bowling 55 × 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 21). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 21 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 17 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- 999 runs in 43 innings, adjusted average 25.9, strike rate 86.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 56 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 1.51 per match at 21.5, economy 3.37, strike rate 38.3.
