Brief explanation of the ratings is given before each section (Detailed Explanation). So, here are the Top 10 batsmen from Sri Lanka in Australia in ODIs.

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)	SL
Venue (V)	AUS
Oposition (O)	ALL

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.
