How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 96 × 40% · Batting 74 × 30% · Bowling not rated (weight redistributed). Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.79 for the level played (National competition 1 · State competition 1 · 1st grade 295 · 2nd grade 67 · Club 3). 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
Keeping: 488 catches + 57 stumpings + 15 run outs (15 direct, 0 assisted) in 367 matches — 1.53 dismissals per match.
Batting
9,393 runs in 359 innings, adjusted average 29.3, strike rate 68.7. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
Not rated: 0 wickets from 2.0 overs across 2 matches bowled in (of 367 played) — 0.00 per match, under the 0.25 floor. Bowls too rarely to judge.
