ICC Rankings: Suryakumar Yadav remains on top of T20I batting chart

India’s Suryakumar Yadav continues to top the ICC Rankings for men’s T20I batters. SKY is currently the only Indian batter in the top 10. Mark Chapman of New Zealand and Iftikhar Ahmed of Pakistan have attained career-best positions in the ICC men’s T20I player rankings at the end of their five-match series in Rawalpindi. Chapman, who smashed unbeaten knocks of 71 off 42 deliveries and 104 off 57 in those two matches to finish with a series topping aggregate of 290 runs, has rocketed 48 places to 35th in the rankings. Chapman’s previous best ranking was 54th attained in February 2018. Iftikhar, who scored 36 in the final match, has proceeded six places to joint 38th position. He is the third-highest ranked Pakistan batter after Mohammad Rizwan (up from 798 rating points to 811 after scoring 98 not out in the final match) and Babar Azam, who are ranked second and third in the list led by Suryakumar. Iftikhar’s previous best was 43rd position in November last year.
