info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.73 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 110.
- ✓ Safe hands — 95 catches in 130 matches (0.73 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 24 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 40% · Batting 58 × 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
- ×0.36 for the level played (2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 11 · Club 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 26 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 82 catches + 24 stumpings + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 130 matches — 0.84 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 2,396 runs in 115 innings, adjusted average 23.4, strike rate 70.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 9 wickets from 46.0 overs across 12 matches bowled in (of 130 played) — 0.07 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
