info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.91 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 41.7.
- ✓ Safe hands — 149 catches in 163 matches (0.91 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 22 run outs.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 57 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 96 × 40% · Batting 74 × 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
- ×0.35 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Club 36). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 123 catches + 57 stumpings + 22 run outs (8 direct, 14 assisted) in 163 matches — 1.24 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 4,632 runs in 152 innings, adjusted average 41.7, strike rate 83.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 2 wickets from 11.3 overs across 3 matches bowled in (of 163 played) — 0.01 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
