Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi, Mohammad Rizwan rise up in ICC Test Rankings
England batter Harry Brook, who scored 19 and three in the third Test against Sri Lanka, dropped seven places to 12th in the ICC Test Batting Rankings.As a result of Brook’s steep fall, seven players moved one place up, including Mohammad Rizwan and Babar Azam, who are now placed at ninth and eleventh respectively.Notably, Babar had a forgettable home series against Bangladesh, where he managed 64 runs in four innings and crashed out of the top ten batters in ICC Test rankings in last week’s update.
In my opinion : The recent shifts in the ICC Test rankings reflect the dynamic nature of cricket performances. Babar Azam, Shaheen Afridi, and Mohammad Rizwan's advancements showcase their consistent contributions, while Harry Brook's drop highlights the impact of recent performances. Sri Lanka's historic win over England adds an exciting twist to the rankings, emphasizing the ever-changing landscape of international cricket. It's fascinating to see how individual players' performances directly influence their positions in the rankings, making each match a crucial opportunity to climb or descend in the standings.
