medium
Batting
High duck rate
Out for 0 in 19% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.
Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 183.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.52.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting 74 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 43 catches + 9 run outs (7 direct, 2 assisted) in 149 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- 2,262 runs in 133 innings, adjusted average 19.3, strike rate 79.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 124 wickets in 132 matches bowled in (of 149 played) — 0.94 per match at 20.9, economy 3.52, strike rate 35.6.
