Adjusted average of 12.7 over 36 innings. Focus on the first 15 balls: leave/defend percentages, judgement outside off stump.
medium
Batting
High duck rate

Strengths

- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.22.
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 51 matches (0.35 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 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 51). 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: 17 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 12.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 56 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 1.27 per match at 17.8, economy 3.22, strike rate 33.2.
