General
Small sample size

- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.34.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 3 innings at 4.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 14 played) — 1.31 per match at 16.8, economy 3.34, strike rate 30.2.
