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.

An opposition is counted as a TT considering its Win/Loss (WL) Ratios in last 5 years.
Home, Away, In Asia, Outside Asia and Overall WL Ratio is considered.
The WL Ratio should be more than a certain value overall or in specific condition.

Overs bowled in the innings must be more than 50% of the allotted overs for a bowler in the match.
This is generally 30 balls for a 50 over match and 36 balls for a 60 over match.
However it may be less if the match is shortened for some reason.
