info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.40 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 20 matches (0.40 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 13.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 9 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.22 per match at 13.1, economy 3.91, strike rate 20.1.
