How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 54 × 40% · Batting 41 × 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 22). 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: 27 catches + 1 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 1.27 dismissals per match.
Batting
351 runs in 21 innings, adjusted average 19.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 2 wickets from 11.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 22 played) — 0.09 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
