How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 44 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (Rep Div 1 4 · Club 24). 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: 11 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 25 innings at 15.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 42 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 1.56 per match at 17.7, economy 3.73, strike rate 28.4.
