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
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 9.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.49.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 24 balls.
- ✓ 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 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 70 × 30%. 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 55 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 54 innings at 16.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 113 wickets in 53 matches bowled in (of 55 played) — 2.13 per match at 9.9, economy 2.49, strike rate 23.9.
