Strengths
- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 2 hundred(s), best of 110.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 40 × 40% · Batting 61 × 30% · Bowling 30 × 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 12). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 12 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 33 catches + 2 run outs (2 direct, 0 assisted) in 120 matches — 0.29 per match.
- Batting
- 1,999 runs in 114 innings, adjusted average 19.8, strike rate 50.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 25 wickets in 33 matches bowled in (of 120 played) — 0.21 per match at 17.4, economy 3.19, strike rate 32.8.
