How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 4 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 13 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 25 matches — 0.56 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 23 innings at 25.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
Not rated: 8 wickets from 51.0 overs across 13 matches bowled in (of 25 played) — 0.62 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
