Indian captain Virat Kohli has slipped down to 10th place in the recently announced ICC T20I rankings, while versatile batsman, KL Rahul has retained his second spot in the standings.
Kohli, under whom India whitewashed New Zealand in the shortest format of the game, was mediocre against the Kiwis during the tenure, scoring just 105 runs in four games. Breaking into the top 10 is England captain Eoin Morgan who scored 136 runs from three innings against South Africa. It was one of those performances from the World Cup winner which helped England register a 2-1 series win over the Proteas. A Player of the Series effort saw him scoring two half-centuries in a three-match series.
KL Rahul, on the other hand, continues to stay second in the tally on the back of his 224 runs at an average of 56 in the five-match series against New Zealand.
Topping the chart is Pakistan’s very own Babar Azam at 879 points; well clear of Rahul. Sitting third is the Australian captain, Aaron Finch, followed by New Zealand’s Colin Munro and Glenn Maxwell.
Rohit Sharma, meanwhile, remains static at 11th. The Indian opener is currently out with a calf injury, which not only forced him to miss the ODIs, but also the Test series.
In terms of bowling, there are no notable changes in the top 20, with the likes of Rashid Khan and Mujeeb Ur Rahman still acquiring the first and second spot respectively.
