How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.37 for the level played (Rep Div 1 8 · Club 33). 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: 8 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 41 matches — 0.22 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 24 innings at 8.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 46 wickets in 39 matches bowled in (of 41 played) — 1.18 per match at 18.7, economy 3.53, strike rate 31.8.
