General
Small sample size

How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 86 × 40% · Batting 74 × 30% · 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
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 3 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 2 matches — 2.00 per match.
- Batting
- 121 runs in 2 innings, adjusted average 90.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
