- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 42 × 40% · Batting 69 × 30% · Bowling 58 × 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 29). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 29 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
