How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 15 catches + 11 run outs (9 direct, 2 assisted) in 79 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 62 innings at 14.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 111 wickets in 76 matches bowled in (of 79 played) — 1.46 per match at 16.0, economy 3.13, strike rate 30.6.
