Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 44 × 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 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 40 matches since 31 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 16 catches + 7 run outs (6 direct, 1 assisted) in 73 matches — 0.32 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 42 innings at 13.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 50 wickets in 63 matches bowled in (of 73 played) — 0.79 per match at 20.3, economy 4.84, strike rate 25.1.
