How these ratings are calculated
Overall
Weighted blend of the disciplines: Fielding 29 × 40% · Batting 65 × 30% · Bowling 26 × 30%. Unrated disciplines are dropped and the remaining weights rescaled, so a non-bowler is not punished for not bowling.
Level
×0.63 for the level played (National competition 6 · State competition 2 · 1st grade 2 · 2nd grade 36 · 3rd grade 3 · Club 2 · 4th grade 2). The same score is worth more in harder cricket.
Form
Rated on the last 53 matches since 26 Oct 2024. Older cricket still shows in the career figures but does not count.
Fielding
Outfield: 67 catches + 11 run outs (9 direct, 2 assisted) in 253 matches — 0.31 per match.
Batting
4,082 runs in 223 innings, adjusted average 23.2, strike rate 67.9. Qualifies on the floors (avg ≥ 20, SR ≥ 40).
Bowling
156 wickets in 182 matches bowled in (of 253 played) — 0.86 per match at 19.9, economy 3.77, strike rate 31.6.
