info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.55 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 159.
- ✓ Safe hands — 63 catches in 114 matches (0.55 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 13 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 69 × 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
- ×0.73 for the level played (National competition 20 · State competition 2 · 1st grade 26 · Rep Div 1 1 · 2nd grade 65). 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
- Keeping: 46 catches + 13 stumpings + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 114 matches — 0.54 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 2,072 runs in 108 innings, adjusted average 21.0, strike rate 66.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 2.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 114 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
