How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 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 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 6 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 0 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.12 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 3 innings at 12.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
10 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 1.43 per match at 14.3, economy 4.45, strike rate 19.3.
