How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting 50 × 30% · Bowling 63 × 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 25). 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: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.28 per match.
Batting
464 runs in 23 innings, adjusted average 23.7, strike rate 68.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
41 wickets in 23 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 1.78 per match at 14.7, economy 3.93, strike rate 22.5.
