medium
Batting

Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 13.3.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.80.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 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 34). 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: 8 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 7.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 0.71 per match at 13.4, economy 2.80, strike rate 28.7.
