info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.48 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Consistent run-scorer — adjusted average 35.7.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 12 hundred(s), best of 229.
- ✓ Safe hands — 54 catches in 112 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 38 × 40% · Batting 84 × 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
- ×0.62 for the level played (1st grade 14 · 2nd grade 86 · 3rd grade 11 · 4th grade 1). 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
- Outfield: 54 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 112 matches — 0.51 per match.
- Batting
- 3,792 runs in 121 innings, adjusted average 35.7, strike rate 69.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 1 wicket from 25.0 overs across 9 matches bowled in (of 112 played) — 0.01 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
