Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.32 for the level played (3rd grade 1 · 4th grade 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 5 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 1 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.12 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 7 innings at 7.1 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 11 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 1.57 per match at 22.7, economy 4.39, strike rate 31.1.
