How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 21 × 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
- ×0.68 for the level played (Rep Div 1 23 · 2nd grade 2 · 3rd grade 2 · Club 4). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 31 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 10 catches + 4 run outs (1 direct, 3 assisted) in 60 matches — 0.23 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 50 innings at 10.2 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 32 wickets in 44 matches bowled in (of 60 played) — 0.73 per match at 20.4, economy 3.71, strike rate 33.0.
