medium
Batting

Strengths
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.10.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 47 × 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 60). 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: 16 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 92 wickets in 59 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 1.56 per match at 19.7, economy 3.10, strike rate 38.1.
