Strengths

How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 31 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 53 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.32 for the level played (2nd grade 1 · 3rd grade 8 · Club 8 · 4th grade 1). 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: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.28 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 4 innings at 0.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
17 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 1.00 per match at 23.9, economy 4.13, strike rate 34.7.
