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.
T20I Batting factors and weights

Compared with 99 batters who played at least 60 innings and scored at least 1,000 runs.

T20I Bowling factors and weights

Compared with 100 bowlers who took at least 50 wickets.

Important scoring choices

Longevity: uses the square root of career span in years multiplied by matches selected. Match counts and first/last dates come from playing-XI appearances, so a did-not-bat or did-not-bowl match still counts.

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

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.

T20I 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.
