How Statz Rating works:
- Each player receives a contextual match impact score based on their all-round contribution — batting, bowling, and situational factors.
- Ratings are scaled against the season benchmark so they are directly comparable across fixtures and to the season leaderboard.
- A typical top performer scores around 100. Exceptional performances can exceed 100.

Turning Point
The match turned decisively when Sam Billings was clean bowled for a duck at 16/4 in the 3rd over of Kent’s chase. At that point, Kent had already lost four wickets for just 16 runs, and Billings’ dismissal left them with no recognised batting depth. From that moment, Kent’s collapse was inevitable – they never recovered and were all out for 59, a total that reflected the gulf in quality between the two sides on the day.
