medium Batting

info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

0.50 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.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 31 catches in 62 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · Bowling 17 × 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 13 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 23 catches + 6 run outs (3 direct, 3 assisted) in 62 matches — 0.47 per match.
Batting
1,157 runs in 64 innings, adjusted average 19.5, strike rate 67.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
10 wickets in 21 matches bowled in (of 62 played) — 0.16 per match at 47.4, economy 6.10, strike rate 46.6.
