How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 85 × 40% · Batting 63 × 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
×0.55 for the level played (1st grade 98 · 2nd grade 21 · 3rd grade 19 · Club 20). 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: 127 catches + 31 stumpings + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 158 matches — 1.03 dismissals per match.
Batting
3,478 runs in 158 innings, adjusted average 23.3, strike rate 94.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 2 wickets from 25.0 overs across 8 matches bowled in (of 158 played) — 0.01 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
