How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 35 × 40% · Batting 62 × 30% · Bowling 57 × 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 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 17 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 21 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- 539 runs in 21 innings, adjusted average 26.9, strike rate 83.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 20 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 21 played) — 1.11 per match at 20.5, economy 3.44, strike rate 35.7.
