Batting
Vulnerable to the straight ball
6 of 11 dismissals are bowled/LBW — likely playing across the front pad or leaving a gate. Work on a straighter bat path and head position over the ball.

Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.24 dismissals per match across 17 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 17). 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: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 17 innings at 15.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 22 wickets from 106.3 overs across 17 matches — 1.29 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
