How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 51 × 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 77). 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: 23 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 77 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 72 innings at 21.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 123 wickets in 74 matches bowled in (of 77 played) — 1.66 per match at 18.3, economy 2.82, strike rate 39.0.
