How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 67 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 61 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 7 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 9 matches — 0.67 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 7 innings at 16.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 14 wickets in 8 matches bowled in (of 9 played) — 1.75 per match at 13.4, economy 3.82, strike rate 21.0.
