How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.44 for the level played (Rep Div 1 14 · Club 33). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 47 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 21 catches + 21 run outs (9 direct, 12 assisted) in 133 matches — 0.32 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 114 innings at 17.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
83 wickets in 101 matches bowled in (of 133 played) — 0.82 per match at 12.9, economy 4.08, strike rate 18.9.
