How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting 73 × 30% · Bowling 59 × 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 14). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 14 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 6 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.21 per match.
Batting
588 runs in 26 innings, adjusted average 27.0, strike rate 108.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
11 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 0.73 per match at 22.1, economy 5.06, strike rate 26.2.
