How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 45 × 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 (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 97). 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: 27 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 98 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 53 innings at 5.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 132 wickets in 93 matches bowled in (of 98 played) — 1.42 per match at 21.0, economy 3.29, strike rate 38.3.
