Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 16 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 29 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.63 for the level played (1st grade 7 · 2nd grade 9 · 3rd grade 1 · 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: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 11 innings at 15.4 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 15 matches bowled in (of 18 played) — 0.93 per match at 49.4, economy 4.28, strike rate 69.4.
