Jack Wildermuth: Age, 110 Not Out, BBL and Career Stats

Jack Wildermuth is a 33-year-old Australian pace-bowling all-rounder who represents Queensland and is contracted to Brisbane Heat for BBL|16. His defining Big Bash innings came on 19 December 2025, when he made an unbeaten 110 from 54 balls and helped Brisbane chase Perth Scorchers' 257 with one ball remaining. That performance formed part of a late-career surge that also included consecutive Sheffield Shield hundreds in March 2025. Wildermuth has played two T20 internationals for Australia, won two Shield titles with Queensland and been part of championship squads with both Melbourne Renegades and Brisbane Heat. His career statistics below are separated by format so overlapping domestic and tournament records are not counted twice.

Career story

Jack Wildermuth career and playing journey

01

Who is Jack Wildermuth?

Jack David Wildermuth is an Australian all-rounder from Toowoomba, Queensland. He bats right-handed and bowls right-arm medium-fast, a combination that has allowed Queensland and Brisbane Heat to use him as a lower-middle-order hitter and a seam option across several phases of an innings.

His senior career has covered Queensland, Brisbane Heat, Melbourne Renegades, Quetta Gladiators, Australia A and the Australian T20I side. Those teams mark different stages of one career. The most recent position is clear: Queensland included him in its 2026/27 men's squad, while Brisbane Heat retained him for BBL|16.

02

How old is Jack Wildermuth?

Jack Wildermuth was born on 1 September 1993 and turned 33 on 1 September 2026. His birthplace is Toowoomba in Queensland, and his long association with Valley District Cricket Club links his professional career to the state's premier-cricket pathway.

Age matters here because his best-known batting performances arrived after he turned 31. The back-to-back Shield hundreds in March 2025 and the BBL hundred in December 2025 were not early-career projections. They were results produced after more than a decade in Queensland's senior system.

03

How did Jack Wildermuth reach Queensland cricket?

Wildermuth represented Australia at under-19 level before making his mark in Queensland's second-team competition. A century on his Futures League debut near the end of the 2013/14 season helped him earn a Queensland rookie contract for the following summer.

That route shaped the all-rounder's early development. He was not selected solely as a power hitter or solely as a fast bowler. Queensland had evidence of both skills, and his first-class career later grew to 79 matches with more than 3,000 runs and more than 180 wickets.

04

What were Jack Wildermuth's early first-class breakthroughs?

Wildermuth's maiden first-class century arrived against South Australia in February 2016, when he reached an unbeaten 100. In March 2017 he made 110 against Tasmania at Blundstone Arena, striking 18 boundaries after being dropped before he had scored.

The 2016/17 Shield season also displayed his bowling value. Cricket Australia's career account records a century and a five-wicket innings in that campaign. Those achievements mattered because they showed that the all-rounder description reflected match-changing contributions with each discipline, not a convenient squad label.

05

How did Wildermuth contribute to Queensland's Shield titles?

Wildermuth was part of Queensland's Sheffield Shield-winning teams in 2017/18 and 2020/21. In the first of those seasons he took 29 wickets, giving the Bulls another productive seam option alongside Michael Neser, Luke Feldman, Mitchell Swepson and Brendan Doggett.

He also played in the 2020/21 final, when Queensland beat New South Wales by an innings and 33 runs at Allan Border Field. The two titles should be attached to their correct seasons. They represent team success across different Queensland sides rather than one continuous championship run.

06

How did Jack Wildermuth enter the Big Bash League?

Wildermuth made his Big Bash debut for Brisbane Heat on 21 December 2016. He moved to Melbourne Renegades before BBL|07, took 10 wickets in that season and spent two campaigns with the club before returning to Brisbane in 2020.

The franchise moves brought team honours as well as opportunity. He was part of the Renegades squad that won BBL|08 and later part of Brisbane Heat's BBL|13 championship squad. Squad membership does not mean he played every match, but it places his career within two title-winning groups.

07

What did Jack Wildermuth do for Australia?

Jack Wildermuth made his international debut against Zimbabwe at Harare Sports Club on 6 July 2018. Australia used him at No. 7 and as a right-arm pace option. He became Australia's 92nd men's T20 international player and finished with two appearances on that tour.

His international record is small: one unbeaten run and one wicket from 18 balls bowled. It confirms that he reached international level, but it does not carry the same sample depth as his Queensland or Big Bash career. His Australia A appearances, including a last-ball win against India B in 2018, provide additional representative context without being senior internationals.

08

Why was the 2025 Sheffield Shield revival important?

Wildermuth entered Queensland's last regular-season Shield match of 2024/25 without a century in the competition for eight years. He responded with 104 from 90 balls against South Australia, helping Queensland collect the batting bonus points needed to reach the final.

He then made 111 from 140 balls in the final at Karen Rolton Oval. The innings gave Queensland a route back into the contest, although South Australia completed the title win. The distinction matters: the 104 helped secure qualification, while the 111 was a strong individual performance in a final Queensland ultimately lost.

09

What else changed for Wildermuth during his 2025 revival?

The red-ball hundreds were part of a broader run. In February 2025 Wildermuth made 83 from 56 balls against New South Wales in the One-Day Cup, then his highest List A score. During the following T20 Max campaign he made two hundreds for Valley, including 159 from 70 balls.

He also spoke publicly about working with a personal trainer after recurring back trouble had interrupted his cricket. The useful conclusion is not that every fitness concern disappeared. It is that better preparation coincided with meaningful performances in three formats and reopened opportunities with Queensland and Brisbane Heat.

10

How did Jack Wildermuth make 110 not out against Perth Scorchers?

Brisbane Heat faced an extraordinary target after Perth Scorchers made 6/257 at the Gabba on 19 December 2025. Wildermuth arrived after Max Bryant retired hurt and attacked from the start, eventually finishing 110 not out from 54 balls. He hit the winning runs as Brisbane reached 2/258 with one ball left.

Matt Renshaw made 102 from 51 balls, and the pair added 212. Wildermuth had been dropped on 42, a reminder that the innings contained a turning point as well as sustained clean hitting. He and Renshaw each struck nine sixes, matching Perth's power and transforming what had looked like an unreachable target.

11

Which BBL records fell in Brisbane's 515-run match?

Brisbane's chase of 258 was the highest successful run chase in Big Bash history at the time. The combined 515 runs made it the competition's first match with a 500-plus aggregate, while the 212-run stand between Wildermuth and Renshaw became the BBL's highest partnership.

Perth and Brisbane each struck 18 sixes, creating a match total of 36. These records describe different parts of the same night: team chase, partnership, aggregate and six-hitting. Wildermuth's individual contribution was 110 not out. He did not score the full chase or create the partnership alone.

12

Was the unbeaten 110 an isolated innings or part of a strong season?

The hundred was the peak, but Wildermuth also completed BBL|15 with 222 runs and 10 wickets for Brisbane Heat. Among Heat batters who scored at least 50 runs, his strike rate of 158.57 was the team's best for the season.

Brisbane finished fifth with five wins and five defeats, so the individual breakthrough did not carry the team into the finals. That wider season context keeps the assessment balanced: Wildermuth delivered his most productive BBL batting campaign, contributed with the ball and produced the tournament's defining chase, but the Heat still missed the playoffs.

13

What do Jack Wildermuth's Big Bash career stats show?

Through BBL|15, Wildermuth had played 62 matches and batted in 40 innings. He scored 512 runs at an average of 13.84 and a strike rate of 134.03, with one hundred, no fifties and a highest score of 110 not out.

His bowling record is broader: 51 wickets at 31.92, an economy rate of 8.43 and best figures of 3/16. The contrast explains his career shape. For most of his BBL career the ball supplied the steadier contribution, while the 2025 hundred dramatically raised the ceiling of what his batting could deliver.

14

What do Jack Wildermuth's first-class stats show?

Through the 2025/26 Australian season, Wildermuth had played 79 first-class matches. He scored 3,286 runs at 28.08, including five hundreds and 14 fifties, and took 182 wickets at 30.17 with best innings figures of 5/40.

Those figures describe a genuine long-form all-rounder. The batting average is calculated per dismissal, while the bowling average measures runs conceded per wicket. They are not directly comparable scores, but together with the match count they show sustained responsibility in both parts of the game.

15

What do Jack Wildermuth's List A stats show?

Wildermuth's List A record through 2025/26 comprised 40 matches, 692 runs and 45 wickets. He averaged 20.35 with the bat, scored six fifties and had a highest score of 83. With the ball he averaged 35.26 and recorded best figures of 4/39.

The List A sample is smaller than his first-class career but large enough to show the same two-skill pattern. His batting strike rate of 99.14 points to an attacking method, while an economy rate of 5.70 reflects the different scoring environment of 50-over cricket.

16

What is Jack Wildermuth's role in a team?

Wildermuth is best described as a seam-bowling all-rounder. He can provide right-arm pace, lengthen a batting order and attack spin or pace when a side needs quick runs. The exact job changes with team balance, pitch conditions and the match phase.

The record chase demonstrated that he can handle a major batting assignment, but one century does not automatically make him a permanent top-order batter. His longer BBL record remains bowling-led. A fair tactical reading keeps both truths together: he offers established seam overs and unusually high batting upside for that role.

17

What is Jack Wildermuth's current team status?

Queensland named Wildermuth in its men's squad for the 2026/27 domestic season. Brisbane Heat also list him among their contracted BBL|16 players after the two-year deal announced in June 2025.

Those selections confirm his current associations, not his place in every starting XI. Queensland have deep pace resources, and Brisbane's combination will depend on overseas availability, injuries, conditions and matchups. Appearances and new-season totals begin only when he is selected in a completed match.

18

How should the different statistical rows be read?

The first-class, List A, T20I and Big Bash rows answer different questions. Big Bash performances sit inside a wider T20 career, while T20 internationals form a separate international subset. Adding overlapping rows would count some appearances, runs and wickets twice.

Averages and strike rates also need their denominators. An unbeaten score affects a batting average differently from a dismissal, and a bowling economy rate answers a different question from wickets per match. The clearest view combines totals, rates, role and the date through which the figures run.

19

What is publicly known about Jack Wildermuth's family?

Cricket runs through parts of Wildermuth's family history. His grandfather Graham Bizzell played 30 first-class matches for Queensland in the 1960s, while distant great-uncle Tom Veivers played 21 Tests for Australia. A 2016 interview described the influence Bizzell retained on Wildermuth's cricket after his death.

A 2021 Shield final preview also reported that Wildermuth had missed the previous round following the birth of his first child. Beyond those details, family members do not need to be turned into public characters. Their names, work and private circumstances are not necessary to understand his cricket career.

20

What is known about Jack Wildermuth's salary, net worth and relationship status?

Brisbane Heat have announced the length of Wildermuth's current deal, but they have not published a dependable personal salary figure. No audited public record establishes his net worth or complete career earnings. Contract length, a competition salary band and personal wealth are different things and should not be treated as interchangeable.

There is also no dependable current public information that establishes a spouse, girlfriend or relationship status for this biography. Search suggestions and repeated claims on low-trust celebrity pages are not evidence. The responsible answer is that those financial and relationship details remain private or unconfirmed.

21

What are Jack Wildermuth's major records and achievements?

Wildermuth's leading individual achievement is his unbeaten 110 from 54 balls in Brisbane's record BBL chase. The same innings formed part of a competition-record 212-run partnership with Matt Renshaw and helped produce the BBL's first 500-plus match aggregate.

His broader achievements include two Sheffield Shield titles with Queensland, championship-squad membership with Melbourne Renegades and Brisbane Heat, two T20I caps, five first-class hundreds and 182 first-class wickets. The consecutive Shield hundreds in March 2025 stand out because they influenced qualification and the final in successive matches.

22

What should readers watch next in Jack Wildermuth's career?

BBL|16 will show whether Brisbane gives Wildermuth more sustained batting responsibility after his 222-run BBL|15 campaign. Queensland's 2026/27 selections will also reveal how often his pace-bowling and lower-order power fit into a deep state squad.

The main questions are practical rather than speculative: where he bats, which overs he bowls, how his body handles another season and whether the 2025 surge becomes repeatable output. Completed scorecards will answer those questions more reliably than pre-season predictions.
