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. To qualify for the rating, a player must have played at least 50 innings against the
Top Teams (TT). TT may be found in the last section of the rating. The first list simply gives you the batsmen with best averages in ODI Cricket. The second list gives you the batsmen with best
Relative Averages (R Ave). Only batsmen with more than 2500 runs are considered for both lists.
