How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 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 49). 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: 16 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.37 per match.
Batting
1,225 runs in 45 innings, adjusted average 31.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
57 wickets in 35 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 1.63 per match at 14.0, economy 3.32, strike rate 25.3.
