Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 64 × 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 42). 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
- Outfield: 7 catches + 4 run outs (4 direct, 0 assisted) in 42 matches — 0.26 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 36 innings at 14.7 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 24 wickets in 38 matches bowled in (of 42 played) — 0.63 per match at 13.0, economy 3.49, strike rate 22.4.
