Each bar is that player’s score out of 100, split into what produced it: segment length is the facet’s peer score times its weight. Darkest segment first. The segments add up to the score, so the bars are read against each other, not against a grid.

Transparent by design

How this ranking was calculated

The list is computed from scorecards, not selected by an AI model. Every player is measured against the same qualified peer population, and the rules below determine the order.

From scorecards to a verdict score
  1. Build the eligible peer population using the selected format, time window and qualification bars.
  2. Calculate every batting or bowling factor directly from the matching scorecards.
  3. Convert each factor to a score against qualified peers, respecting whether higher or lower is better.
  4. Apply the published weights. If a factor is unavailable, its weight is redistributed across that player's recorded factors.
  5. Add the weighted factors to produce the verdict score out of 100, then rank from highest to lowest.
ODI Batting factors and weights

Compared with 435 batters who played at least 10 innings.

ODI Bowling factors and weights

Compared with 228 bowlers who played at least 10 innings and bowled at least 750 balls.

Important scoring choices

Contribution: total runs or wickets measure output within the selected period.

Fixed-era weighting: longevity is not scored because a player should not be penalised when only part of their career overlaps the era. Its allocation moves to runs or wickets.

Wicket magnitude: career and long-era wicket volume uses 85% peer position and 15% raw distance from the leading qualified wicket total. This preserves the difference between exceptional totals that sit together at the top of a percentile table. Run volume stays a pure percentile, because career run totals vary far more widely and blending raw magnitude there would penalise a short career of outstanding quality.

All-rounders: a player must clear both qualification bars. The batting and bowling verdicts are combined with a geometric mean, preventing one outstanding discipline from completely carrying a weak one.

ODI eligibility: this curated list includes players representing current ICC full-member teams. All of their recorded opposition still counts.

Editorial scope: this is a transparent judgement model, not an official record table. It does not insert or promote named players, and it applies no blanket era multiplier.
