How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 36 × 40% · Batting 52 × 30% · Bowling 73 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.57 for the level played (1st grade 10 · Club 5). 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: 4 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 15 matches — 0.40 per match.
Batting
297 runs in 15 innings, adjusted average 23.8, strike rate 72.1. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
28 wickets in 15 matches — 1.87 per match at 11.1, economy 4.01, strike rate 16.6.
