Top 10 New Zealand Batsmen Vs India In ODIs

Our One Day International (ODI) ratings take into account all matches from the first ODI match on January 5, 1971 till the below mentioned last update date. Most of our ratings are dynamic, and as new matches are played, the rating of earlier batsmen may change if current batsmen set new benchmarks. Brief explanation of the ratings is given before each section (Detailed Explanation). So, here are the Top 10 batsmen from New Zealand against India in ODIs.

*Note: All ODI Ratings are updated till 2025-09-15

8. TEAM VEN OPP RATING

TVO RATING

This rating considers performances of players from specific teams in particular nations or against particular oppositions.

Team (T)	NZ
Venue (V)	ALL
Oposition (O)	IND

THE CRITERIA

The TVO Rating is divided into 5 main sections:-

CRITERIA	STAT	POINTS
Prolific	Runs Scored	250.00
Consistent	Average	200.00
Attacking	Strike Rate	200.00
Big Innings Potential	Top Scores	200.00
Quick Innings Potential	Top Inns By SR	150.00

The Trend Setter (TS)

TS is the player who does the best in a criteria. The rating of all other players are calculated taking the TS as the benchmark. Know All About TS. Here is a simple example:-

TS Runs: 2,000; Player X Runs: 1,000; Section Points: 250.00
TS Points: 250.00(Max); Player X Points: Runs/TS Runs X 250 = 1,000/2,000 X 250 = 125.00
Ratings of all sections are calculated similarly with Runs being replaced by the Criteria Stat.

CONSISTENT

R Ave

Relative Average (R Ave) is a more accurate type of average. Know How It Is Calculated. Briefly, it takes into account:-

Strength of Opposition.
Positions at which a batsman has played.
Venues at which he has played.
Time Period in which he has been active
