How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 55 × 40% · Batting 63 × 30% · Bowling 54 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.41 for the level played (Rep Div 1 9 · Club 30 · 4th grade 1). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 40 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 30 catches + 8 run outs (5 direct, 3 assisted) in 86 matches — 0.44 per match.
Batting
1,450 runs in 80 innings, adjusted average 24.0, strike rate 84.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
64 wickets in 77 matches bowled in (of 86 played) — 0.83 per match at 23.1, economy 3.95, strike rate 35.0.
