Adjusted average of 10.6 over 49 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 20% 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 16.9.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.22.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 8 × 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 11). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 11 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 10.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 70 wickets in 48 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 1.46 per match at 16.9, economy 3.22, strike rate 31.5.
