- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.72.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
- ✓ Safe hands — 52 catches in 108 matches (0.48 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 70 × 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 108). 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: 52 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 108 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 89 innings at 16.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 148 wickets in 83 matches bowled in (of 108 played) — 1.78 per match at 13.3, economy 3.72, strike rate 21.4.
