  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 20 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.38 for the level played (Rep Div 1 7 · Club 35). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 42 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 42 catches + 20 run outs (6 direct, 14 assisted) in 152 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
2,450 runs in 124 innings, adjusted average 24.9, strike rate 69.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
130 wickets in 127 matches bowled in (of 152 played) — 1.02 per match at 14.3, economy 3.10, strike rate 27.6.
