- ✓ Strikes regularly — a wicket every 21 balls.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 6 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 63 × 30%. 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 13). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 13 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 13 catches + 6 run outs (5 direct, 1 assisted) in 64 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 50 innings at 14.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 59 wickets in 62 matches bowled in (of 64 played) — 0.95 per match at 17.2, economy 4.96, strike rate 20.8.
