Others to lose ground inside the top-20 are South Africa’s Imran Tahir in ninth (down by three places), Yuzvendra Chahal in 11th (down by seven places), Australia’s Billy Stanlake in 14th (down by five places) and Andrew Tye in 18th (down by eight places).
There is no change at the top of the rankings with Babar Azam of Pakistan continuing to be the top-ranked batsman, while Afghanistan’s Rashid Khan is the top-ranked bowler and Glenn Maxwell of Australia is the leading all-rounder.
