Viv Richards | Detailed ODI Bowling Stats

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. It is to be noted that U.A.E. is considered as a second Home for Pakistan and Afghanistan. All Home and Away stats of Pakistani and Afghani bowlers are calculated accordingly. The most wickets (BBW) and best ER (BBE) performances only include performances against the Non Weak Teams (NWT). A bowler's performace is counted in NWT if he played against that team in that decade. The Non Weak Teams may be found in the last section.

*Note: All ODI Ratings are updated till 2025-09-15
