How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 69 × 40% · Batting 85 × 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
×0.88 for the level played (National competition 65 · 1st grade 265 · Rep Div 1 22 · 2nd grade 4 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 10). 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: 213 catches + 22 run outs (22 direct, 0 assisted) in 367 matches — 0.64 per match.
Batting
12,372 runs in 362 innings, adjusted average 40.5, strike rate 68.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 31 wickets from 184.2 overs across 43 matches bowled in (of 367 played) — 0.08 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
