How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 70 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 7 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 6 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 13 matches — 0.54 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 6 innings at 23.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
21 wickets in 13 matches — 1.62 per match at 19.6, economy 3.86, strike rate 30.4.
