How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 53 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · 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 21). 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: 7 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.43 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 19 innings at 14.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 36 wickets in 21 matches — 1.71 per match at 17.2, economy 2.89, strike rate 35.8.
