How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 38 × 30% · Bowling 47 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.31 for the level played (Rep Div 1 1 · Club 52). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 15 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 53 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- 1,205 runs in 54 innings, adjusted average 24.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 46 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 53 played) — 1.28 per match at 27.0, economy 4.91, strike rate 33.0.
