medium
Batting

- ✓ Safe hands — 12 catches in 33 matches (0.36 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 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 33). 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: 12 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 33 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 27 innings at 9.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 33 played) — 1.10 per match at 19.1, economy 3.30, strike rate 34.8.
