- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.98.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 18 × 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 91). 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: 24 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 91 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 100 innings at 16.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 183 wickets in 88 matches bowled in (of 91 played) — 2.08 per match at 17.4, economy 2.98, strike rate 35.1.
