info
General
Small sample size

Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.1.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.20.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 15 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 3 innings at 1.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 15 matches — 1.47 per match at 14.1, economy 3.20, strike rate 26.5.
