How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 23 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling 55 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.42 for the level played (Rep Div 1 3 · Club 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Keeping: 20 catches + 3 stumpings + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 36 matches — 0.67 dismissals per match.
- Batting
- 1,074 runs in 35 innings, adjusted average 32.4, strike rate 91.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 8 wickets in 13 matches bowled in (of 36 played) — 0.22 per match at 23.8, economy 4.06, strike rate 35.1.
