info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.41 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 19 catches in 46 matches (0.41 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 44 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.33 for the level played (1st grade 2 · Rep Div 1 4 · Club 40). 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: 13 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 46 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 46 innings at 12.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 46 played) — 0.52 per match at 17.1, economy 3.05, strike rate 33.6.
