medium Batting
High duck rate

Out for 0 in 13% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

info Fielding

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 15.6.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.05.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 36 catches in 83 matches (0.43 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 18 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 35 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 83 matches — 0.45 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 94 innings at 17.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
102 wickets in 76 matches bowled in (of 83 played) — 1.34 per match at 15.6, economy 3.05, strike rate 30.6.
