info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
1.27 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 31.0.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 203.
- ✓ Safe hands — 81 catches in 64 matches (1.27 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 12 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 51 × 40% · Batting 77 × 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
- ×0.40 for the level played (2nd grade 7 · 3rd grade 5 · Club 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 26 matches since 2 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 53 catches + 7 run outs (2 direct, 5 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.94 per match.
- Batting
- 1,994 runs in 69 innings, adjusted average 31.0, strike rate 78.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 3.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
