info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.54 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 14 catches in 26 matches (0.54 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 6 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 26). 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
- Keeping: 14 catches + 6 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.77 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 26 innings at 19.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 17.0 overs across 4 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 0.04 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
