    "editor1": "<p>Nov. 8 (CRICKETNMORE) - South Africa wicket-kepper Quinton&nbsp;De Kock has achieved career-high position&nbsp;in the&nbsp;latest ICC Test Player Rankings&nbsp;after firing South Africa to an emphatic 177 runs victory over Australia in the opening Test of the three-match series in Perth on Monday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>De Kock has scored 84 and 64 for which he has been rewarded with a jump of 11 places. This has put the left-hander in 20th spot in the batting chart. The wicketkeeper-batsman has now become South Africa&rsquo;s third batsman to feature inside the top 20. Hashim Amla is sixth after dropping out of the top five following a five-place slide, while AB de Villiers, who is missing the series due to an injury, is seventh.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<br \/>\r\nThe 23-year-old de Kock looks strong to gain more points, which means he can move further up the order as he is still in the qualification period. A batsman qualifies for a full rating after he has played in 40 Test innings, while de Kock has so far scored 720 runs in 17 innings of 11 Tests.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Also Check <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cricketnmore.com\/cricket-special\/sourav-ganguly-relives-india-s-win-at-lords--20930\"><span style=\"color:#008000;\"><em>Gain for Rabada in ICC Bowlers Ranking<\/em><\/span><\/a><br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<br \/>\r\nThe other South Africa players to reap the benefits for stellar performances in the Perth Test include opener Dean Elgar, who has achieved a career-high 24th position after rising five places, and JP Duminy, whose fourth career century has lifted him nine places to 38th position.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<br \/>\r\nThe good news for Australia in the batting table is the movement of David Warner in eighth (up by one place), Shaun Marsh in 31st (up by two places) and Usman Khawaja in 33rd (up by four places) and Peter Nevill in 80th (up by 14 places).<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>ICC Top 20 Batsmen in ICC Rankings<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Batsmen (top 20)<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<br \/>\r\nRank &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (+\/-)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Player&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Team &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;&nbsp; 1 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ( - )&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Steve Smith&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Aus &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;&nbsp; 2 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (+1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Kane Williamson NZ &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;&nbsp; 3 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (+1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Joe Root&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Eng &nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;&nbsp; 4 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (+1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Younus Khan&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Pak &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;&nbsp; 5 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (+1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Ajinkya Rahane&nbsp;&nbsp; Ind &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;&nbsp; 6 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (-4)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Hashim Amla&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; SA &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;&nbsp; 7 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ( - )&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; AB de Villiers&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; SA &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;&nbsp; 8 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (+1)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; David Warner&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Aus &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;&nbsp; 9 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (-2)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Adam Voges&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Aus &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp; 10 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ( - )&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Misbah-ul-Haq&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Pak &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp; 11 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ( - )&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Alastair Cook&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Eng &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp; 12 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ( - )&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Azhar Ali&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Pak &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;<br \/>\r\n&nbsp; 13 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ( - )&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; C.
