0.24 dismissals per match across 21 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.66.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting 33 × 30% · Bowling 58 × 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 21). 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: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- 38 runs in 6 innings, adjusted average 11.6, strike rate 20.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 28 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 1.40 per match at 18.0, economy 3.66, strike rate 29.5.
