info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.42 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 — 1 hundred(s), best of 102.
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.0.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.87.
- ✓ Safe hands — 32 catches in 77 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting 55 × 30% · Bowling 65 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 30 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 77 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- 1,046 runs in 56 innings, adjusted average 22.0, strike rate 69.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 142 wickets in 72 matches bowled in (of 77 played) — 1.97 per match at 13.0, economy 2.87, strike rate 27.3.
