How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 51 × 40% · Batting 42 × 30% · Bowling 72 × 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 18 matches — 0.61 per match.
- Batting
- 232 runs in 13 innings, adjusted average 23.3, strike rate 68.5. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 61 wickets in 18 matches — 3.39 per match at 10.1, economy 2.76, strike rate 22.0.
