How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 14 · Club 47). 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: 12 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 61 matches — 0.20 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 20.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 83 wickets in 57 matches bowled in (of 61 played) — 1.46 per match at 20.9, economy 3.66, strike rate 34.2.
