How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 67 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 18 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 23 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 62 matches — 0.42 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 56 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 116 wickets in 62 matches — 1.87 per match at 12.1, economy 3.06, strike rate 23.8.
