Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). 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 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 2 matches since 1 Nov 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 11 matches — 0.45 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 8 innings at 9.0 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 16 wickets from 68.0 overs across 11 matches — 1.45 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
