How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 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 14). 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: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 14 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 19.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 14 played) — 1.31 per match at 19.7, economy 4.09, strike rate 28.9.
