Out for 0 in 14% of imported innings. Build a repeatable start routine: watch the ball out of the hand, score first run with low-risk pushes.

medium Batting

  • ✓ Safe hands — 64 catches in 165 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 34 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 46 × 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 165). 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: 63 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 165 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 140 innings at 20.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
174 wickets in 143 matches bowled in (of 165 played) — 1.22 per match at 25.6, economy 5.21, strike rate 29.5.
