Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 58 × 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 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 31 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 30 innings at 9.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 38 wickets in 30 matches bowled in (of 31 played) — 1.27 per match at 18.1, economy 3.82, strike rate 28.4.
