How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 59 × 30% · Bowling 66 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.44 for the level played (State competition 9 · Club 31). 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: 36 catches + 7 run outs (2 direct, 5 assisted) in 105 matches — 0.41 per match.
Batting
1,198 runs in 78 innings, adjusted average 18.1, strike rate 84.8. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
157 wickets in 102 matches bowled in (of 105 played) — 1.54 per match at 14.8, economy 3.63, strike rate 24.4.
