Strengths
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 30 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 54 × 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 16). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 16 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 6 catches + 1 run outs (0 direct, 1 assisted) in 20 matches — 0.35 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 13 innings at 19.3 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 18 wickets in 19 matches bowled in (of 20 played) — 0.95 per match at 23.7, economy 4.23, strike rate 33.7.
