Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 10.7 over 20 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 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 24). 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: 9 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 24 matches — 0.46 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 20 innings at 10.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 12 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 24 played) — 0.75 per match at 18.1, economy 4.09, strike rate 26.5.
