info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.49 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 94.9) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Safe hands — 26 catches in 53 matches (0.49 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 63 × 40% · Batting 54 × 30% · Bowling 66 × 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 24). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 24 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 23 catches + 4 run outs (2 direct, 2 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.51 per match.
- Batting
- 1,071 runs in 52 innings, adjusted average 23.4, strike rate 94.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 56 wickets in 47 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 1.19 per match at 20.9, economy 4.21, strike rate 29.8.
