Out for 0 in 15% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 8.7.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.57.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 15 catches in 41 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 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 41). 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: 14 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.37 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 26 innings at 12.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
39 wickets in 40 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.97 per match at 8.7, economy 2.57, strike rate 20.3.
