0.20 dismissals per match across 35 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 30%. 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 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 18.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 30 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.03 per match at 22.4, economy 4.95, strike rate 27.1.
