ICC rankings: Smriti Mandhana’s stunning form takes her to a career-best rating in T20Is | Cricket News

Smriti Mandhana, who cracked half-centuries in all three T20Is against the West Indies, is up to second position in the batting chart for the shortest format with a career-best 753 rating points, the ICC said in a press release on Tuesday.
Mandhana, who has been in stunning form across both white-ball formats in 2024, is now at the second spot in both ODI and T20I rankings, being Laura Wolvaardt and Beth Mooney respectively. With her half-century against West Indies in the 2nd ODI in Vadodara on Tuesday, Mandhana has scored 50+ in six straight international outings, starting with a century in Perth against Australia in the third and final match of that series.
In the bowling rankings, India’s new-ball bowler Renuka Singh Thakur has moved into the top 20 for the first time after a match-winning haul of five for 29.
Australia all-rounder Annabel Sutherland’s match-winning efforts in the ICC Women’s Championship series against New Zealand have helped her make rapid gains in the ICC Women’s ODI Player Rankings.
The 23-year-old has attained career-best positions in all three ls after being adjudged Player of the Match in the second and third ODIs that Australia won after the first match was abandoned without a ball being bowled.

Her scores of 105 not out and 42 in the two matches have helped her shoot up 11 places to 18th position in the batting rankings while her haul of three for 39 in the third ODI has lifted her three places to 17th position in the bowling rankings. She has also moved up to seventh from ninth in the all-rounders’ l after being named the Player of the Series.
