Strengths

- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.16.
- ✓ Safe hands — 18 catches in 50 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 18 catches + 4 run outs (3 direct, 1 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 43 innings at 14.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 126 wickets in 49 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 2.57 per match at 15.9, economy 3.16, strike rate 30.2.
