In T20Is, India’s Suryakumar Yadav remains atop the batting chart.
Adil Rashid holds the number one spot among T20 bowlers, becoming only the second English spinner after Graeme Swann to do so.
Rashid has replaced Afghanistan’s Rashid Khan, thanks to his seven-wicket haul in four T20Is against the West Indies, while Ravi Bishnoi (3rd) is the top-ranked Indian.
Shakib leads the chart among T20 all-rounders, with Pandya (4th) being the highest-ranked Indian.
New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson dominates the number one spot among Test batters, followed by Joe Root (2nd) and Steven Smith (3rd).

Veteran India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin tops the Test bowlers’ chart, followed by Kagiso Rabada, Shakib and Jadeja.
A few Aussies have scaled heights, with skipper Pat Cummins climbing to the third place, followed by Nathan Lyon (5th), Mitchell Starc (8th) and Josh Hazlewood (10th), thanks to their dominant display against Pakistan.
