How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 39 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling 75 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.38 for the level played (Rep Div 1 6 · Club 44). 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: 18 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 50 matches — 0.38 per match.
Batting
985 runs in 48 innings, adjusted average 23.1, strike rate 71.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
91 wickets in 46 matches bowled in (of 50 played) — 1.98 per match at 11.8, economy 3.06, strike rate 23.2.
