- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.55.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 17 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 83 × 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 43). 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: 8 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 43 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 39 innings at 9.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 49 wickets in 41 matches bowled in (of 43 played) — 1.20 per match at 7.1, economy 2.55, strike rate 16.7.
