How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 32 × 40% · Batting 94 × 30% · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.66 for the level played (1st grade 10 · 2nd grade 1 · Club 5). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 16 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 16 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
674 runs in 15 innings, adjusted average 50.9, strike rate 77.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
13 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 16 played) — 0.87 per match at 20.8, economy 3.97, strike rate 31.4.
