- ✓ Builds pressure with a tight economy of 3.65.
- ✓ Safe hands — 39 catches in 100 matches (0.39 per match), a genuine selection asset.
- ✓ Dangerous ground fielder — involved in 12 run outs.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting 49 × 30% · Bowling 56 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.38 for the level played (State competition 6 · Club 40). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 46 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 36 catches + 12 run outs (8 direct, 4 assisted) in 100 matches — 0.48 per match.
- Batting
- 1,672 runs in 85 innings, adjusted average 25.7, strike rate 87.0. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 82 wickets in 97 matches bowled in (of 100 played) — 0.85 per match at 18.1, economy 3.65, strike rate 29.7.
