  • ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 23 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 27 × 40% · Batting 37 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 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 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 6 matches since 28 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 22 matches — 0.27 per match.
Batting
383 runs in 18 innings, adjusted average 23.6, strike rate 40.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
38 wickets in 22 matches — 1.73 per match at 13.5, economy 3.47, strike rate 23.4.
