How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 51 × 40% · Batting 82 × 30% · Bowling 55 × 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 47). 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: 22 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.51 per match.
- Batting
- 1,285 runs in 38 innings, adjusted average 39.2, strike rate 92.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 27 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 1.00 per match at 20.1, economy 3.03, strike rate 39.8.
