How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting 44 × 30% · Bowling 59 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.29 for the level played (3rd grade 1 · Club 48 · 4th grade 5 · 5th grade and below 13). 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.
