How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 66 × 40% · Batting 55 × 30% · Bowling 52 × 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 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 23 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 22 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 23 matches — 0.96 per match.
- Batting
- 395 runs in 20 innings, adjusted average 24.7, strike rate 101.4. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 17 wickets in 17 matches bowled in (of 23 played) — 1.00 per match at 16.7, economy 6.96, strike rate 14.4.
