The Duck Pond

Most career ducks. Eleven seasons of service has a price.

2 Stuart Sharp 18
3 Drew Tudor 16
4 Mitchell Anderson 16
5 Alex Reeve-Webber 14

Golden Ducks Club

Gone first ball. In and out like a tradie quote. (Verifiable from 2021-22, when balls-faced records begin — these are floors.)

3 Ashis Guha 3
4 Drew Tudor 3
5 Mandeepak Attri 2

5 Drew Tudor 7

The Danger Zone

Most run outs been present for — either end. Reconstructed from fall-of-wickets: 79 of the club's 171 career run outs are provable with certainty; the rest stay honestly ambiguous.

2 Drew Tudor — survived 5 10
3 Jonathan Gumley — survived 2 8
4 Andrew Richards — survived 5 7
5 Alex Reeve-Webber — survived 5 6

2 Drew Tudor 140

5 Matthew Behan 78

Bogey teams & happy hunting grounds

Who performs against whom — batting and bowling averages against a single club, next to what the player usually does. Scorecard-derived across all eleven seasons, with floors (five innings, or eight wickets, against that club) so every line is a real sample, not a one-hit wonder.
