How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 33 × 40% · Batting 53 × 30% · Bowling 46 × 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 38). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 38 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.

Outfield: 55 catches + 7 run outs (7 direct, 0 assisted) in 188 matches — 0.33 per match.
Batting
3,302 runs in 188 innings, adjusted average 19.6, strike rate 66.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
137 wickets in 127 matches bowled in (of 188 played) — 1.08 per match at 18.2, economy 3.51, strike rate 31.1.
