Adjusted average of 5.7 over 30 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate

Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 17.8.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 31). 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 + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 30 innings at 5.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 31 matches — 0.65 per match at 17.8, economy 3.96, strike rate 26.9.
