- ✓ Safe hands — 25 catches in 59 matches (0.42 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 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 59). 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: 25 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 59 matches — 0.47 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 46 innings at 17.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 110 wickets in 58 matches bowled in (of 59 played) — 1.90 per match at 12.6, economy 3.00, strike rate 25.2.
