medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals

Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 114.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 52 × 30% · Bowling 20 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.46 for the level played (1st grade 6 · 2nd grade 6 · Club 43). 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 + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 55 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- 1,248 runs in 52 innings, adjusted average 25.4, strike rate 74.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 38 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 55 played) — 0.83 per match at 29.8, economy 4.26, strike rate 42.0.
