How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 80 × 40% · Batting 46 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.85 for the level played (1st grade 30). 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: 56 catches + 0 stumpings + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 30 matches — 1.87 dismissals per match.
Batting
661 runs in 34 innings, adjusted average 21.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 0 wickets from 1.0 overs across 1 matches bowled in (of 30 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
