The International Cricket Council (ICC) has released the updated player and team rankings with not many significant changes since the last week.
No Pakistani player has witnessed significant movement in their position in both the batting and bowling departments with Babar Azam maintaining his eighth position in Test batters rankings and Shaheen Afridi and Hasan Ali maintaining their fifth and eleventh positions respectively in the Test bowlers rankings.
Indian batter, Mayank Agarwal, on the other hand, gained a staggering 31 places and is now ranked number 11 in Test batters rankings. New Zealand’s Tom Latham lost three places after a disappointing series against India which helped Australian batter, David Warner, to move up one spot to number 9 in the world.
