How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 80 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.84 for the level played (1st grade 71 · 3rd grade 1). 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: 28 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 72 matches — 0.40 per match.
- Batting
- 2,401 runs in 66 innings, adjusted average 41.9, strike rate 102.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 125 wickets in 69 matches bowled in (of 72 played) — 1.81 per match at 20.1, economy 3.11, strike rate 38.7.
