- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 16 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 10 catches in 26 matches (0.38 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 26 matches — 0.50 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 21 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 26 played) — 1.40 per match at 14.2, economy 5.25, strike rate 16.3.
