Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 45 × 30% · Bowling 53 × 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 34). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 34 matches since 29 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.31 per match.
- Batting
- 649 runs in 34 innings, adjusted average 20.8, strike rate 68.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 47 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 1.42 per match at 22.4, economy 4.31, strike rate 31.2.
