Getting starts but not surviving
Adjusted average of 12.7 over 16 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.

- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.65.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 9 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 16 innings at 12.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 22 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 1.00 per match at 17.2, economy 3.65, strike rate 28.3.
