The ICC men's T20 batting rankings rate individual batters on a points scale. The rating is built from the runs a batter scores, the quality of the bowlers faced, the result of the match, and how the score compares with the other scores in that match, so a big innings against a strong attack in a low-scoring game counts for more than the same score in an easy one.

T20I ratings change fastest of the three formats because teams play many short series and a single match is decided in a few hours.

Ratings are updated by the ICC after matches finish; a batter who is not playing keeps their rating, though it can still fall in rank as others overtake them.

Rank is the player's current position in this format. A green or red arrow shows how many places they moved since the last update.

Rating is the player's points score. A gap of a few points between neighbours is small and can flip after one innings or spell; a gap of 50+ points usually reflects a real difference in form over time.

The country under each name is the team the player represents.

The ICC updates T20 rankings after matches and series finish, so the table can change several times in a busy month and not at all in a quiet one. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page shows when Game on Field last refreshed the table from the ICC.
