How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 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 (Club 31). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 31 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 46 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 184 matches — 0.26 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 148 innings at 11.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
301 wickets in 169 matches bowled in (of 184 played) — 1.78 per match at 18.4, economy 3.25, strike rate 34.0.
