How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting 64 × 30% · Bowling 58 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 11 catches + 5 run outs (0 direct, 5 assisted) in 49 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
981 runs in 43 innings, adjusted average 26.5, strike rate 84.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
40 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 49 played) — 1.21 per match at 18.0, economy 4.95, strike rate 21.8.
