How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting 64 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.25 for the level played (Club 17 · 4th grade 4 · 5th grade and below 19). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 35 catches + 8 run outs (5 direct, 3 assisted) in 97 matches — 0.44 per match.
- Batting
- 1,272 runs in 79 innings, adjusted average 19.6, strike rate 72.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 54 wickets in 63 matches bowled in (of 97 played) — 0.86 per match at 17.5, economy 4.26, strike rate 24.6.
