Adjusted average of 6.2 over 18 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

medium Batting

Out for 0 in 22% 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 14.7.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.75.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 30). 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: 10 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 0.37 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 18 innings at 6.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
41 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 1.52 per match at 14.7, economy 2.75, strike rate 32.0.
