Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 5.6 over 5 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.6.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 14 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 6 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 2 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 7 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 5 innings at 5.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 12 wickets in 7 matches — 1.71 per match at 14.6, economy 3.98, strike rate 22.0.
