How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 67 × 30% · Bowling 35 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.49 for the level played (Rep Div 1 17 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 19 · 4th grade 6). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 43 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 25 catches + 3 run outs (0 direct, 3 assisted) in 67 matches — 0.42 per match.
Batting
1,443 runs in 58 innings, adjusted average 28.3, strike rate 65.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
14 wickets in 28 matches bowled in (of 67 played) — 0.50 per match at 32.3, economy 4.35, strike rate 44.5.
