Getting starts but not surviving

- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.70.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 17 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 76 × 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 17 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 11.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 54 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 1.69 per match at 10.5, economy 3.70, strike rate 17.1.
