info Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon

Strengths

  • ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 34.7.
  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 1 hundred(s), best of 125.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 9 catches in 18 matches (0.50 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 60 × 40% · Batting 45 × 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
×0.30 for the level played (Club 18). 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
Outfield: 9 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.50 per match.
Batting
502 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 34.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 4 wickets from 24.0 overs across 5 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.22 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
