How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · Bowling 64 × 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 32). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 32 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 55 catches + 5 run outs (2 direct, 3 assisted) in 156 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
2,812 runs in 149 innings, adjusted average 23.6, strike rate 57.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
109 wickets in 93 matches bowled in (of 156 played) — 1.17 per match at 14.9, economy 3.54, strike rate 25.3.
