Sarfaraz Khan and Shubman Gill make big jump in ICC Test rankings
Indian players showed great performance in the 5-match Test series played against England. While the batsmen scored runs, the bowlers showed their charisma by taking wickets. Its effect can also be seen on ICC’s latest Test rankings. Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Virat Kohli are not only in the top 10, but Shubman Gill and Sarfaraz Khan have also got a huge boost this time.
Shubman Gill jumped 11 places
The bat of Shubman Gill, one of the star batsmen of the Indian team, was silent for some time after coming at number three, but after the first few innings against England, the bat broke the silence and started scoring a lot of runs. Shubman Gill scored runs in the last test also. The effect of this was that in the ICC Test rankings released this time, Shubman Gill has made a huge jump of 11 places. He has now reached joint 20th position with Dinesh Chandimal of Sri Lanka. His rating this time is 664.
Sarfaraz again enters top 100
If we talk about Safraz Khan, this was his debut series for him. In the very first series, Sarfaraz made many new records and secured his place in the top 100 in the ICC Test rankings. This time, in the rankings released by ICC, Sarfaraz Khan has made a huge jump of 15 places. Now he has reached 89th position with a rating of 355. He had come in the top 100 earlier also, but after that he was out of it, but now he has been entered again. Meanwhile, Sarfaraz has also done the work of leaving behind many of his older and veteran batsmen.
3 Indian batsmen included in top 10
The special thing about this time’s ranking is that 3 Indian batsmen have been successful in securing their place in the top 10. First of all, Rohit Sharma has reached sixth position with a rating of 751. He has jumped 5 places on the basis of good performance. Rohit’s partner, opening batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal, has reached number 8 with a rating of 740. He has gained two places. Virat Kohli may have been away from the England series, but despite this he remains in the top 10. It is another matter that he has had to suffer the loss of one place. This time Virat Kohli remains at ninth position with a rating of 737.
