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).
So, here are the Top 10 Non Asian Spin bowlers in matches Outside Asia in T20Is.
*Note: All T20I Ratings are updated till 2024-12-06
UC RATING
Points to note about NON ASIANS OUTSIDE ASIA Rating:-
- Unfavourable Conditions (UC) is Outside Asia for Spinnrs and In Asia for Pacers.
- Favourable Conditions (FC) are the opposite.
- This categorization has been done as there are more points for UC in our Overall Rating.

| Consistent | Average | 250.00 |
| Economic | Strike Rate | 300.00 |
| Best Bowling | Top Inns (Wkts) | 100.00 |
| Economic Bowling | Top Inns (Eco) | 150.00 |
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:-
- TS Ave: 25.00; Player X Ave: 30.00; Section Points: 300.00
- TS Points: 300.00(Max); Player X Points: TS Ave/Ave X 300 = 25.00/30.00 X 300 = 250.00
- Ratings of all sections are calculated similarly with Ave being replaced by the Criteria Stat.
- Knock Out matches of T20 World Cup are also counted in TT.
Non Weak Teams (NWT)
Some sections consider performances only against Non Weak Teams. Here is some information about the Non Weak Teams:-
- Win/Loss Ratio is used to determine Non Weak Teams.
- The Non Weak Teams are calculated by decades.
