Our T20 International (T20I) ratings take into account all matches from the first T20I match on February 17, 2005 till the below mentioned
last update date. Most of our ratings are dynamic, and as new matches are played, the rating of earlier bowlers may change if current
bowlers set new benchmarks. Brief explanation of the ratings is given before each section
(Detailed Explanation). Top Form is calculated by taking the best 15 consecutive innings of a bowler against Top Teams such that his Rating Points
are Maximum.So, here are the Top 10 Fast bowlers in their Top Form Away From Home in T20Is.
*Note: All T20I Ratings are updated till 2023-01-08

The Trend Setter (TS)
TS is the player which 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 an example:-
