0.17 dismissals per match across 42 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 18 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 51 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 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 36). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 36 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.17 per match.
Batting
703 runs in 41 innings, adjusted average 28.4, strike rate 83.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
33 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.85 per match at 17.2, economy 5.71, strike rate 18.1.
