  • ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 11 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 45 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 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 39). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 39 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 19 catches + 11 run outs (6 direct, 5 assisted) in 76 matches — 0.39 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 49 innings at 16.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
75 wickets in 62 matches bowled in (of 76 played) — 1.21 per match at 14.5, economy 3.84, strike rate 22.6.
