How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 50 × 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 37). 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: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 37 matches — 0.30 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 30 innings at 18.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
38 wickets in 29 matches bowled in (of 37 played) — 1.31 per match at 18.0, economy 3.82, strike rate 28.2.
