How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 19 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 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 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 11 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.25 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 38 innings at 7.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 46 wickets in 50 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 0.92 per match at 19.7, economy 3.63, strike rate 32.7.
