How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 25 × 40% · Batting 76 × 30% · Bowling 66 × 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 10). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 10 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 4 catches + 0 run outs (0 direct, 0 assisted) in 19 matches — 0.21 per match.
Batting
320 runs in 12 innings, adjusted average 33.3, strike rate 91.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
39 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 19 played) — 2.17 per match at 12.6, economy 3.59, strike rate 21.1.
