Critical recommendations
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.56 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 90.0) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 16 matches (0.56 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 51 × 40% · Batting 55 × 30% · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.49 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · 3rd grade 6 · 4th grade 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.62 per match.
- Batting
- 246 runs in 13 innings, adjusted average 26.2, strike rate 90.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 1.08 per match at 19.8, economy 3.99, strike rate 29.8.
