info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.56 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Scores quickly (SR 102.9) without sacrificing consistency.
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 137.
- ✓ Safe hands — 29 catches in 52 matches (0.56 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Sharp glovework — 11 stumpings.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting 64 × 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 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 23 catches + 11 stumpings + 4 run outs (0 direct, 4 assisted) in 52 matches — 0.73 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 880 runs in 47 innings, adjusted average 21.5, strike rate 102.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
