How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting 62 × 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
- ×0.37 for the level played (Rep Div 1 19 · Club 143). 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: 36 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 162 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- 2,667 runs in 146 innings, adjusted average 20.6, strike rate 82.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 52 wickets from 258.0 overs across 58 matches bowled in (of 162 played) — 0.32 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
