How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 22 × 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
×0.54 for the level played (State competition 9 · Rep Div 1 13 · Club 27). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 49 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 131 catches + 14 run outs (11 direct, 3 assisted) in 388 matches — 0.37 per match.
Batting
Not rated: 277 innings at 19.5 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
Bowling
587 wickets in 342 matches bowled in (of 388 played) — 1.72 per match at 19.7, economy 3.73, strike rate 31.7.
