How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting 53 × 30% · Bowling 47 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.37 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Rep Div 2 9 · Club 71). 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.
