The two-game series ended last Monday. The next day, the ICC posted an update on the rankings in a tweet.
In the first round of the series, Williamson shared the best innings of his career (251) with Virat Kohli at number two. Two people had 6 rating points. But the New Zealand star was on leave in the second test to be alongside a child-prone wife. He is 9 points behind the Indian captain.
Tom Latham (11th), who led New Zealand in the last round against the Caribbean, has dropped a notch. Henry Nichols has improved. Indian Vice Captain Ajinkya Rahane has placed in the top ten.
Jermaine Blackwood has improved in the rankings among West Indian hitters. In the first inning of the second test, he has advanced 6 steps by fifty and is in 33rd position. Steven Smith of Australia is at the top of the hitters ranking as usual.
Neil Wagner lost second place in the bowlers standings. New Zealand’s pacemaker, who took just three wickets in the match, is down to three, while England’s Stuart Broad is back by two.
New Zealand pacemaker Kyle Jamieson, who took five wickets in the innings for the second time in his career from four tests and a total of seven in the match, has improved. He’s ranked 33rd. Australia’s Pat Cummins remains at the top of the bowler rankings.
James Anderson (7th), Jaspreet Bumrah (8th), Josh Hazelwood (9th) and Ravichandran Ashwin (10th) have improved a step.
There has been little change in the top spot among off-roaders. Among the top five are Ben Stokes, Jason Holder, Rabindra Jadeja, Shakib Al Hasan and Mitchell Starc.
