How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 61 × 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 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 5 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 5 matches — 1.00 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 4 innings at 15.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 9 wickets in 5 matches — 1.80 per match at 12.2, economy 3.06, strike rate 24.0.
