info
Fielding
Fielding is a selection weapon
0.60 catches per match is elite for this level — keep it visible by taking the hardest catching positions in big games.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 6 catches in 10 matches (0.60 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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
- ×0.32 for the level played (3rd grade 2 · Club 8). 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: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 10 matches — 0.60 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 8 innings at 20.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 18 wickets from 52.5 overs across 10 matches — 1.80 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
