The scale
5 – Outstanding
4- Good
3 – Average
2- Below Average
1- Hopelessly bad
x- Not worth rating
Please note that the ratings for a player are based on the expectations from a player of his category. Therefore, an under 23 player could have a better rating than an Indian international, despite having a worse absolute performance; because the expectations from an under 23 player are lower than an Indian international.
The ratings are not just based purely on statistics but have also factored in the number of significant performances of each player; a significant performance being one which influenced the outcome of a game. Example being the 30 odd scored by Mithun Manhas against Chennai at Chepauk.
