How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 57 × 30% · Bowling 15 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.37 for the level played (State competition 3 · Club 23). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 26 matches since 30 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 13 catches + 2 run outs (1 direct, 1 assisted) in 51 matches — 0.29 per match.
Batting
1,283 runs in 50 innings, adjusted average 28.7, strike rate 68.2. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
9 wickets in 18 matches bowled in (of 51 played) — 0.18 per match at 42.4, economy 5.16, strike rate 49.3.
