How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 3 × 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 47). 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
- Keeping: 5 catches + 2 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 47 matches — 0.15 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 37 innings at 12.8 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 25 wickets in 22 matches bowled in (of 47 played) — 1.14 per match at 13.5, economy 5.20, strike rate 15.6.
