Fielding

Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 9.1.

- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 14 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 76 × 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 16 innings at 15.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 39 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 14 played) — 3.00 per match at 9.1, economy 2.40, strike rate 22.7.
