How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 73 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 65 × 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 7). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 7 matches since 28 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 4 catches + 3 run outs (1 direct, 2 assisted) in 9 matches — 0.78 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 6 innings at 1.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 10 wickets in 9 matches — 1.11 per match at 8.8, economy 2.69, strike rate 19.6.
