How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 28 × 40% · Batting not rated (weight redistributed) · Bowling 49 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.73 for the level played (National competition 5 · State competition 5 · 1st grade 28 · Rep Div 1 21 · 2nd grade 22 · 3rd grade 14 · Club 1 · 4th grade 2). 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: 20 catches + 7 run outs (7 direct, 0 assisted) in 98 matches — 0.28 per match.
- Batting
- Not rated: 39 innings at 12.9 average — below the 20 floor needed to be presented as a batter.
- Bowling
- 114 wickets in 86 matches bowled in (of 98 played) — 1.33 per match at 20.2, economy 3.45, strike rate 35.1.
