  • ✓ Proven ability to go big — 6 hundred(s), best of 201.
  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 16.4.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.09.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 143 catches in 401 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 17 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 49 × 40% · Batting 54 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.40 for the level played (Rep Div 1 8 · Club 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 139 catches + 17 run outs (16 direct, 1 assisted) in 401 matches — 0.39 per match.
Batting
10,195 runs in 394 innings, adjusted average 31.3, strike rate 77.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
689 wickets in 374 matches bowled in (of 401 played) — 1.84 per match at 16.5, economy 3.09, strike rate 31.9.
