How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.60 for the level played (2nd grade 3). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 3 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 0 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 3 matches — 0.33 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 2 innings at 6.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 8 wickets in 3 matches — 2.67 per match at 11.8, economy 4.51, strike rate 15.6.
