Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.4.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.18.
  • ✓ Safe hands — 13 catches in 35 matches (0.37 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.31 for the level played (3rd grade 8 · Club 4 · 4th grade 23). 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: 13 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.43 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 33 innings at 23.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
38 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.73 per match at 17.5, economy 3.18, strike rate 32.9.
