How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 12 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 56 × 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 22). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 22 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 39 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 35 innings at 16.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 51 wickets in 36 matches bowled in (of 39 played) — 1.42 per match at 14.2, economy 2.91, strike rate 29.4.
