Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.1.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 41). 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: 9 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 18.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 32 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 0.84 per match at 17.2, economy 3.95, strike rate 26.1.
