medium
Batting
Too many aerial dismissals
18 of 25 dismissals caught. Review shot selection — particularly lofted drives and pulls early in the innings. Train hitting along the ground until set.

- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.75.
- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 20 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 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 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 27 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 12 catches + 7 run outs (3 direct, 4 assisted) in 54 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 48 innings at 13.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 48 wickets in 51 matches bowled in (of 54 played) — 0.94 per match at 12.7, economy 3.75, strike rate 20.3.
