How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 17 × 40% · Batting 44 × 30% · Bowling 67 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.61 for the level played (State competition 5 · 1st grade 4 · Rep Div 1 24 · 3rd grade 1 · Club 18). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- No match in the last 2 years, so not ranked. The rating shown is from the career.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 8 catches + 1 run outs (1 direct, 0 assisted) in 52 matches — 0.17 per match.
- Batting
- 960 runs in 47 innings, adjusted average 30.0, strike rate 82.3. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 58 wickets in 50 matches bowled in (of 52 played) — 1.16 per match at 14.4, economy 2.50, strike rate 34.4.
