How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 78 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 15). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 15 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 17 matches — 0.18 per match.
Batting
558 runs in 17 innings, adjusted average 38.6, strike rate 75.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
