Critical recommendations
info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.93 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 77 catches in 83 matches (0.93 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 10 run outs.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 25 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 74 × 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
- ×0.46 for the level played (2nd grade 21 · 3rd grade 10 · Club 8 · 4th grade 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 46 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 59 catches + 25 stumpings + 10 run outs (2 direct, 8 assisted) in 83 matches — 1.13 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 78 innings at 23.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 7.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 83 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
