How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.44 for the level played (Rep Div 1 18 · 2nd grade 5 · 3rd grade 30 · Club 27 · 4th grade 2). 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 + 7 run outs (7 direct, 0 assisted) in 82 matches — 0.37 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 52 innings at 13.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 103 wickets in 77 matches bowled in (of 82 played) — 1.34 per match at 20.9, economy 3.65, strike rate 34.3.
