India’s left-arm spinner Axar Patel jumped 20 places to a career-best rank of 13 in the latest ICC Rankings for ODI bowlers after a wonderful outing in the recently concluded 3 match ODI series against Zimbabwe. \u00a0Jasprit Bumrah and Dhawal Kulkarni also made progress after conclusion of 50-over series against Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n
Axar Patel is now just three places behind India’s highest-ranked bowler Ravichandran Ashwin.<\/p>\n
West Indian spinner Sunil Narine has returned to number-one position.\u00a0South Africa’s Imran Tahir has jumped three places to second position. The wrist spinner is the leading wicket-taker in the ongoing Tri-nation series — involving Australia and the West Indies — with 13 wickets to date, including a career-best seven for 45 against the West Indies.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, in the ODI Player Rankings for batsmen, Sri Lanka’s Tillakaratne Dilshan and the Kiwi team-mates Kane Williamson and Martin Guptill have benefitted from Rohit Sharma’s absence from the series against Zimbabwe and Quinton de Kock’s ordinary form to rise up the chart.<\/p>\n
Dilshan and Williamson now share fourth position while Guptill is in sixth position following Rohit’s drop to seventh (down by two) and de Kock’s eighth (down by four).<\/p>\n
AB de Villiers, whose 200th ODI lasted just six deliveries in Barbados on Sunday, is the number-one ranked batsman. He is followed by India’s Virat Kohli, 79 points behind, while Hashim Amla is third.<\/p>\n
