- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.30.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 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 56). 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: 19 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 56 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 18.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 55 wickets in 41 matches bowled in (of 56 played) — 1.34 per match at 11.6, economy 2.30, strike rate 30.2.
