Indian captain Rohit Sharma and senior batsman Virat Kohli are among the batsmen whose ranking has declined. Rohit has slipped one place to third place, while Virat slipped two places to sixth place. Shreyas Iyer, who scored a fierce half -century in the first ODI of the 3 -match series against England, is the latest Indian player to join the list of top 10 batsmen.
Iyer won India in the first ODI
Iyer scored a half -century off just 30 balls in the first ODI against England. After the performance of India’s openers in Nagpur, Iyer’s innings played an important role in India’s victory. Iyer was not part of the team’s plan before the series, where he was fed in the first match instead of the injured Virat. But now based on his performance, he has almost secured his place at number four for the Champions Trophy.
Rashid Khan tops the bowling list
Afghanistan spin bowler Rashid Khan tops the bowlers list with 669 rating points. Mahesh Dikshana and Bernard Scolts are in second and third place respectively, while Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammad Siraj have fallen to three and four places to fifth and tenth respectively.
