- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.51.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 25 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 18 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 21 innings at 6.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 46 wickets in 37 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 1.24 per match at 14.6, economy 3.51, strike rate 25.0.
