Adjusted average of 6.8 over 27 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 33% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 48 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 66 × 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 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 32 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 15 catches + 5 run outs (1 direct, 4 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.49 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 6.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 48 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 1.23 per match at 15.0, economy 4.39, strike rate 20.5.
