The domination of India in the test Cricket in the recent past has been top-notch. India have successfully qualified for both the WTC finals played to date but they had tough days in the finals. Just following the WTC final 2023, India and West Indies were scheduled to play a two-match test series and India won the series 1-0 after one draw.
In the latest updated ICC Test player rankings, there are as many as eight Indian players in the top 10 rankings or each (batting, bowling, and all-rounder) category. Two batsmen in the top 10 batting rankings, three bowlers in the top 10 bowling rankings, and three players in the top 10 All-rounders rankings. The bowling rankings and all-rounders rankings are led by Indian players.
Virat Kohli, India's highest run-scorer in the recently concluded two-match Test Series against South Africa, climbed three spots to take over the number six position from former Pakistan skipper Babar Azam, owing to excellent performances in the Cape Town Test against South Africa.
Along with him, the present Indian skipper Rohit Sharma has also made some massive gains. His aggressive approach at the top in the red ball format is something, the team is getting a lot of benefits with. His recent performances have led him to the 10th spot with 748 rating points.
With 864 rating points next to his name, New Zealand captain Kane Williamson is still at the top of the Men's Test Batting Rankings. Although he wasn't active for a while, each time he came into the square, he stole the show. Joe Root of England comes in second with 859 rating points. Despite a lackluster test series against Pakistan, Steve Smith maintained his third-place ranking with 818 rating points.
Coming to bowling rankings, Ravi Ashwin of India has been leading the board for quite a long time now. With 863 rating points to his name, the spin master Ashwin is at the top. Following him is Australian skipper Pat Cummins who replaced Rabada from the place. Jasprit Bumrah is ranked 4th in the latest updated rankings and Jadeja is fifth.
Mohammad Siraj also took a big leap from 30th rank to 17th rank in the test format following his outstanding 6-wicket haul against the Proteas at Cape Town. Josh Hazlewood also climbed up 4 ranks to share the 7th rank with English bowler James Anderson.
As always, there are no big changes in the All-rounders rankings. Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja is leading the table with 434 rating points followed by his compatriot Ashwin. There is a big rating points margin between number one and number two as Ashwin stands second with 341 rating points.
Axar Patel shares the fifth spot with an England player Joe Root. Know for his batting, Joe Root had an excellent Ashes 2023 with ball as well resulting in his name being in the All-rounders tally.
