Critical recommendations
medium
Batting

Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.74.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting 55 × 30% · Bowling 52 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.74 for the level played (1st grade 56 · Rep Div 1 3 · 2nd grade 35 · 3rd grade 5 · Club 2). 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: 31 catches + 5 run outs (5 direct, 0 assisted) in 101 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- 1,345 runs in 85 innings, adjusted average 20.7, strike rate 66.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 107 wickets in 90 matches bowled in (of 101 played) — 1.19 per match at 22.8, economy 3.74, strike rate 36.5.
