How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting 43 × 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 87). 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: 22 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 87 matches — 0.30 per match.
- Batting
- 1,973 runs in 83 innings, adjusted average 26.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- Not rated: 31 wickets from 162.2 overs across 30 matches bowled in (of 87 played) — 0.36 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
