How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 43 × 40% · Batting 63 × 30% · Bowling 52 × 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 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 19 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 69 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- 1,847 runs in 68 innings, adjusted average 31.2, strike rate 89.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 110 wickets in 64 matches bowled in (of 69 played) — 1.72 per match at 16.7, economy 3.06, strike rate 32.7.
