Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.3.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.47 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 12 innings at 21.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 15 wickets in 12 matches bowled in (of 15 played) — 1.25 per match at 13.3, economy 3.84, strike rate 20.7.
