Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 15 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 48). 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: 12 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 48 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 41 innings at 7.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 16 wickets from 114.3 overs across 36 matches bowled in (of 48 played) — 0.44 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
