Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 48 × 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 20). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 20 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 28 matches — 0.36 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 17.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 20 matches bowled in (of 28 played) — 1.05 per match at 22.9, economy 4.82, strike rate 28.5.
