CricketICC ODI Rankings: Virat Kohli top-ranked batsman, Kuldeep Yadav rises to sixth

Following the limited overs series against England, India’s Virat Kohli has maintained his position at the helm of ICC Men’s ODI Player Rankings for batsmen while wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav has moved into the top-10 for bowlers thanks to his magical spells.Kohli

India may lost the series 2-1, but Kohli remained in good form. Scores of 75, 45 and 71 runs to total 191 runs at an average of 63.66 ensured he remained in top spot. Not just that, it also gave him his career-best rating points: 911.

England’s Joe Root has climbed up to second in the charts after scoring two centuries in the three match series. Root scored an unbeaten 113 at Lord’s and followed it up with a 100* in the third and final ODI at Headingley. The spurt propelled Root to second in the rankings, jumping four places from sixth before the series began.

The 818 ratings points, however, isn’t Root’s best in his career. The 819 he had after the Brisbane ODI against Australia earlier this year, when he scored 91* in Melbourne with 46* in the next match, remain his best.

With Root moving up to second, there was movement in the middle with Pakistan’s Babar Azam moving down to third, suspended David Warner slipped two spots to fifth, while Ross Taylor went down one position to No. 6. Rohit Sharma, however, maintained his place at at No.4, with his 137* in the first ODI helping his cause.

Spinners Rashid Khan and Kuldeep made merry under warm weather and turning track. Rashid picked six wickets in the three games including 3/49 in the final ODI to carry him to a career-high 681 rating points. However, it kept him in the eighth spot. Yadav, meanwhile, jumped eight spots to take up the No 6 spot with career-high 684 rating points. Kuldeep took nine wickets in the series with returns of 6/25 and 3/68 in the first and second ODIs.
