Getting starts but not surviving

- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.60.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.34 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 19). 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: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 13.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 16 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 1.06 per match at 11.8, economy 3.60, strike rate 19.7.
