Big change in ICC test ranking
ICC has once again released new rankings. Today the third test match between India and Australia has ended. Only after this the ICC has released the new ranking. However, since this match has continued till date, its statistics have not been added to the rankings. Even after this, many changes have taken place in the new ranking. Especially the number one chair has changed again. Harry Brook was the number one batsman earlier, but now he has come down. Joe Root has again occupied the number one chair.
Joe Root reached number one and Harry Brook reached number two.
Joe Root has reached number one in the new Test rankings released by ICC. Joe Root’s rating has currently increased to 895. Earlier they were in second place, but now they have managed to capture the top position again. Meanwhile, England’s Harry Brook has slipped to second place. He has lost one place. He is now in second place with a rating of 876. He has suffered slight damage. Meanwhile, Kane Williamson had scored a century in his last match, hence his rating has increased, but there has been no impact in the ranking. His rating has now reached 867.
The ranking of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Travis Head also did not change.
India’s Yashasvi Jaiswal is at number 4 in the ICC Test rankings with a rating of 811. Talking about Australia’s Travis Head, he remains at number 5 with a rating of 781. The numbers from India vs Australia third Test have not been added to the rankings this time, so the ratings of Jaiswal and Head remain the same. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka’s Kamendu Mendis remains at number 6 with a rating of 759. South Africa’s Test captain Temba Bavuma is at number 7 with a rating of 753. New Zealand’s Daryl Mitchell is currently rated 725 and is at number eight.
Steve Smith also did not get any benefit after scoring a century
Indian team’s wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant has a rating of 724 and is at number 9. Pakistan’s Saud Shakeel has the same rating i.e. 724, hence he is also at number nine. Steve Smith is at number 11 with a rating of 708. Steve Smith also scored a century against the Indian team in the third match, but he does not seem to be getting the benefit of it this time. The match has ended today, so when next week’s ratings come, the numbers for this match will also be added to it. Even after that, very big and important changes can be seen.
