0.24 dismissals per match across 34 matches. Add direct-hit and ground-fielding reps to turn half-chances into run outs.

Strengths

  • ✓ Genuine wicket-taker — bowling average of 8.4.
  • ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 2.29.
  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 22 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting 68 × 30% · Bowling 75 × 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 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 4 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 8 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 34 matches — 0.24 per match.
Batting
722 runs in 30 innings, adjusted average 28.9, strike rate 81.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
74 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 34 played) — 2.47 per match at 8.5, economy 2.29, strike rate 22.2.
