Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.62 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 45 catches in 73 matches (0.62 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 32 run outs.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 14 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 62 × 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
- ×0.51 for the level played (State competition 1 · Rep Div 1 7 · Club 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 19 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 31 catches + 14 stumpings + 32 run outs (1 direct, 31 assisted) in 73 matches — 1.05 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 61 innings at 20.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 6 wickets from 29.0 overs across 13 matches bowled in (of 73 played) — 0.08 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
