General
Small sample size
Only 3 batting innings imported — import more of this player's matches before treating these findings as conclusive.
Strengths
- ✓ Safe hands — 7 catches in 9 matches (0.78 per match), a genuine selection asset.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 0 × 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
- ×0.78 for the level played (Rep Div 1 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 2 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 7 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 9 matches — 0.78 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 3 innings at 18.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- Not rated: 3 wickets from 23.0 overs across 9 matches — 0.33 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
