  • ✓ Safe hands — 8 catches in 18 matches (0.44 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 46 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 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 18). 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: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.44 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 14 innings at 7.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
21 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 1.31 per match at 12.4, economy 2.47, strike rate 30.0.
