medium
Batting

How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 3 run outs (2 direct, 1 assisted) in 44 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 29 innings at 7.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 67 wickets in 42 matches bowled in (of 44 played) — 1.60 per match at 20.5, economy 3.55, strike rate 34.6.
