Alana King Reclaims No.1 Spot In ICC Women's ODI Bowling Rankings

By IANS News April 07, 2026 • 20:50 PM View: 168

ODI Bowling Rankings: Australia leg-spinner Alana King reclaimed the top spot in the ICC Women’s ODI Bowling Rankings within four days of losing it as she took a remarkable five for 19 to overtake England spinner Sophie Ecclestone and move up in the list.

King’s spell, along with Phoebe Litchfield’s 68 not out (56 balls), helped Australia to a nine-wicket win and a 3-0 series victory over the West Indies.

Litchfield’s unbeaten 87-run, second-wicket partnership with Ellyse Perry (33 not out off 40 deliveries) saw her remain steady in fifth place in the ODI Batting Rankings, but she crossed the 700 rating points mark for the first time. Perry’s contributions moved her two slots to re-enter the top 10 from 12th place last week.
