By IANS News May 27, 2025 • 14:56 PM View: 656

T20 World Cup: Pakistan left-spinner Sadia Iqbal has dethroned England's Sophie Ecclestone as the No.1 T20I bowler in the latest ICC Women's Rankings released on Tuesday.

Ecclestone has slipped from first to fourth after missing the T20I series against West Indies as she was recuperating from an injury and played domestic cricket during the past week.

She has been replaced on the top of the charts with another left-arm spinner Sadia while India’s Deepti Sharma and Australia’s Annabel Sutherland have taken the second and third positions respectively.
