Greatest
ODI batting performances
The following factors
are considered to rate ODI batting performances.
 1.
Batting Base points
The batting base points are given for runs scored.
2. Speed of Scoring
Index
The strike rate of the batsmen and how it compares to the
overall run-rate of the innings.
3. Percentage of Score
Index
This reflects the percentage of team runs scored by the batsman.
4. Bowling Quality Index
The bowling quality index is based on the quality of bowlers who have bowled in
the innings. Only bowlers who have bowled at least 15% of the total overs are
considered so as to make sure that the fifth bowler does not lower the Index
determination adversely.
5.
Not out Index
This is a low rated parameter, with bonus points being awarded for unbeaten
innings under 200 runs. The points awarded
diminishes as the score increases. This index has a lower importance compared to
Tests.
6. Point of Entry Index
This index reflects the entry point and distinguishes between 5 for 1, 27 for 2,
35 for 3 etc.
7. Wickets falling while
at crease Index
This index reflect the number of wickets seen through by the batsman. An opening
batsman, carrying his bat through, gets the highest value.
8. State of play Index
Was the batsman's team setting or chasing a target?
9. Match Status Index
This is a complex index, which reflects the status of the match. The highest
value is given to a successful and close chase (Miandad's 116*).
10. Match Importance Index
What was the importance of the match (World Cup finals receive the most points,
matches against ICC associate-member countries the fewest)?
11. Result Index
This index is based on the player's contribution to the match result. The match
should be a win or a tie for points to be allocated.
12. Overs Index
Was the match rain-affected? Was it a 50, 55 or 60 over match?
In addition, the ratings calculated
is downsized proportionately if the innings is less than
100.
