How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 72 × 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 65). 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: 24 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 65 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 60 innings at 8.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
104 wickets in 56 matches bowled in (of 65 played) — 1.86 per match at 14.7, economy 3.62, strike rate 24.4.
