  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.48.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 61). 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: 14 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.25 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 59 innings at 11.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
103 wickets in 57 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 1.81 per match at 18.0, economy 3.48, strike rate 31.0.
