- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.52.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 17 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 71 × 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 14 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 11 innings at 8.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.88 per match at 10.0, economy 3.52, strike rate 17.0.
