Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 38 × 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 28). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 28 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 5 run outs (2 direct, 3 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 50 innings at 16.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 57 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 0.56 per match at 22.0, economy 4.33, strike rate 30.5.
