Yashasvi Jaiswal and Axar Patel registered their career-best ICC T20I rankings in the batting and bowling categories on the back of their impressive performances in the ongoing three-match series against Afghanistan. Axar Patel’s hauls of two for 23 and two for 16 in India’s identical six-wicket wins over Afghanistan in the first two T20Is of their three-match series have lifted him two places to 16th among all-rounders.
On the other hand, opener Yashaswi Jaiswal’s 34-ball 68 in the first T20I in Indore has lifted him seven places to a career-best sixth position while other left-hander Shivam Dube’s successive unbeaten knocks of 60 and 63 have helped him shoot up from 265th to 58th.
Among other notable changes, former Pakistan skipper Babar Azam has moved one place higher to No. four on the back of three consecutive half-centuries against New Zealand. Babar’s ascent has resulted in Aiden Markram’s decline as the South African T20I skipper has slipped to the No. five slot.
England’s star leggie Adil Rashid is at the top of the bowling rankings whereas Akeal Hosein is the new world No. two with 683 ratings. India’s Ravi Bishnoi has slipped down to the No. six spot.
