ODI Player Rankings: South Africa's opening batter Tazmin Brits has risen two spots to a career-high fourth position in this week’s update of the ICC Women’s ODI Player Rankings. She moved into fourth place among batters after scoring 101 in the Proteas’ six-wicket win over New Zealand in the Women’s World Cup on Monday.
Brits’ century is her fifth this year, setting a record for the most three-figure scores by a woman cricketer in a single calendar year. South Africa bounced back in impressive fashion after their loss to England in their campaign opener.

Her previous best finish was 10th place in January this year. Gardner’s improvement is due to a spectacular 115 runs off 83 balls in their tournament debut against the White Ferns, a match Australia won by 89 runs.
New Zealand captain Sophie Devine has risen seven places to equal her career-best eighth position in the batters’ rankings, after scoring 112 and 85 in losses to Australia and South Africa. The last time she reached this position was in October 2024.
