Star India Wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant continued his impressive increase in the ICC tests and climbed to sixth in the latest update. Pant, which only became the second bag in the history of the test to record two places in the same match last week during the first test against England last week, improved its evaluation by one place to achieve a new best career rating of 801 points. Now he follows the top dough, English Joe Root, only 88 points.
The 27 -year -old showed his class with excellent shifts 134 and 118 in the Headingley test, despite the Indian defeat in India. This performance powered him in sixth place in the ranking of the test bats, only in one place shy about the fifth place of his career, which he held in the same period in 2022. Pant’s total 801 points indicate personal best and puts him at a significant distance of root, which maintained his close lead on top of 28 and 28.
Root’s English teammate, Harry Brook, remains second, 15 evaluating points for his manager. England Ben Duckett also climbed to the new best eighth position after his match of 149 victory in the second shift in Leeds.
Among other things, the Indian dough Opener Yashasvi Jaiswal retained his fourth place and remained the highest Indian, while Captain Skubman Gill slipped into one place to 21.
On the bowling front, the Indian pace of Spearhead Jasprit Bumrah continued to dominate the rating of 907 and strengthened its position above the five goal match against England. South African Kagis Rabada and Australian captain Pat Cummins followed in second and third places, while Australian Josh Hazlewood moved one place to fourth and moved Pakistani Spinner Noman Ali.
Meanwhile, the Indian Ravindra Jadeja retained her position as a versatile test No. 1 despite the relatively quiet series. Elsewhere, West Indies, Quick Jayden Seales gained a place to move to the ninth overall, while Sri Lanka Spinner Prabath Jayasuriya raised one place on 14.
In addition, two South African versators were rewarded for their strong performance against Zimbabwe in Bulawayo. Wiaan Mulder climbed seven places to 15.
