Critical recommendations
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 22 catches in 55 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 42 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.55 for the level played (Rep Div 1 21 · Club 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 41 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 21 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 55 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 33 innings at 15.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 49 matches bowled in (of 55 played) — 0.65 per match at 22.0, economy 4.45, strike rate 29.6.
