How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 88 × 40% · Batting 85 × 30% · 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
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 2 catches + 4 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 4 matches — 1.50 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 173 runs in 4 innings, adjusted average 54.1, strike rate 95.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
