General

- ✓ Proven ability to go big — 3 hundred(s), best of 157.
How these ratings are calculated
- Overall
- Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 41 × 40% · Batting 79 × 30% · Bowling 18 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
- Level
- ×0.69 for the level played (National competition 6 · 1st grade 12 · Rep Div 1 9 · 2nd grade 11 · Club 9). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
- Form
- Rated on the last 47 matches since 27 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
- Fielding
- Outfield: 32 catches + 7 run outs (3 direct, 4 assisted) in 103 matches — 0.38 per match.
- Batting
- 2,045 runs in 82 innings, adjusted average 30.7, strike rate 70.6. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
- Bowling
- 96 wickets in 78 matches bowled in (of 103 played) — 1.23 per match at 20.8, economy 3.83, strike rate 32.6.
