How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 47 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 29). 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: 10 catches + 3 run outs (3 direct, 0 assisted) in 29 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 28 innings at 17.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 34 wickets in 27 matches bowled in (of 29 played) — 1.26 per match at 20.4, economy 3.33, strike rate 36.7.
