How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 24 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 68 × 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 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 18 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 5 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.28 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 3 innings at 3.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
35 wickets in 18 matches — 1.94 per match at 12.5, economy 2.83, strike rate 26.6.
