How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 20 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 60 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.39 for the level played (Rep Div 1 5 · Club 17). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 5 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 22 matches — 0.27 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 9 innings at 22.6 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 21 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 22 played) — 1.11 per match at 15.4, economy 2.89, strike rate 32.0.
