India Deepti Sharma approached the top of the ICC’s women’s bowling ranking, moving up to second place, while the opener of Mandhan’s Smalling slipped to the second place in the batting charts. Deepti, who now shares position 2 with Pakistani Sadia IQBAL, holds 732 rating points, only four for Australian Annabel Sutherland.
Sutherland reached the first place for the first time in her career, although she has not played T20i since March, when she claimed four goals against New Zealand. Its evaluation remains at 736, which benefits from other top -of -the -line pitch -offs who have lost points in the last week. IQBAL, previous No. 1, dropped after a modest return of three goals in defeat in Pakistan 1-2 to Ireland. Deepti also remains the third in the ranking of all -round with 387 points, behind the captain of West Indies Hayley Matthews (505) and New Zealand’s Amelia Kerr (434).
In the launch list, Mandhana leaves her on the second at 728 points, just behind the English Nat Sciver-Brunt, which leads with 731. Indian Captain Harmanpreet Kaur enjoyed a remarkable rise and climbed to 10 seats. The 23-year-old player in the Irish historical victory of the 2-1 series over Pakistan and for her versatile exploitation earned the player’s prize player.
Prendergast scored 144 runs across three matches in an impressive 72 average, while taking four important goals with his live medium pace. Her performance played a decisive role in the first Irish victory of the T20i series over Pakistan.
The updated charts emphasize the intensive competition above in the female cricket, with just a handful of points separating the leading players in tabs and bowling charts. With several bilateral series and female World Cup T20 on the horizon, in the coming months promises closely fought.
