info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
1.20 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 15 matches (1.20 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 69 × 40% · Batting 44 × 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
- ×0.30 for the level played (Club 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 18 catches + 0 stumpings + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 15 matches — 1.40 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 270 runs in 14 innings, adjusted average 20.7, strike rate 77.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 0 wickets from 1.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
