Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 31 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 33 × 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 8). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 8 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 8 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 3 innings at 5.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 4 wickets in 7 matches bowled in (of 8 played) — 0.57 per match at 37.8, economy 4.44, strike rate 51.0.
