How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 37 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 69 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 11 · Club 70). 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: 23 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 81 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 58 innings at 8.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
70 wickets in 73 matches bowled in (of 81 played) — 0.96 per match at 12.6, economy 3.21, strike rate 23.6.
