Adjusted average of 8.8 over 49 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Fielding
Low overall fielding impact
0.24 dismissals per match across 92 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.
Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 12.5.
- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.51.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 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 92). 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: 19 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 92 matches — 0.24 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 49 innings at 8.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 211 wickets in 90 matches bowled in (of 92 played) — 2.34 per match at 12.5, economy 2.51, strike rate 29.8.
