How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting 48 × 30% · Bowling 65 × 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 25). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 25 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 35 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- 467 runs in 25 innings, adjusted average 24.7, strike rate 82.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 37 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 35 played) — 1.32 per match at 16.7, economy 4.78, strike rate 21.0.
