Strengths
- ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 14.5.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 59 × 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 31). 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: 9 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 15.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 1.45 per match at 14.5, economy 3.89, strike rate 22.3.
