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 — 9 catches in 17 matches (0.53 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting 70 × 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
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2 · Club 15). 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: 7 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.47 per match.
- Batting
- 302 runs in 14 innings, adjusted average 23.1, strike rate 82.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 9.0 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 17 played) — 0.06 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
