How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 57 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 46 catches + 6 run outs (6 direct, 0 assisted) in 182 matches — 0.29 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 164 innings at 15.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
302 wickets in 177 matches bowled in (of 182 played) — 1.71 per match at 16.6, economy 3.26, strike rate 30.6.
