Healy matthews

Bangladesh Skipper Nigar Sultana: New Zealand star Melie Kerr dethroned West Indies skipper Healy Matthews to regain the top spot in the T20I all-rounders chart as the International Cricket Council (ICC) released the updated women's rankings on Tuesday.

Kerr returns to the top position just days before the start of the T20 World Cup, with West Indies skipper Hayley Matthews dropping back to the No.2 slot after she sat out her side's final fixture of the recent tri-series in Ireland.

Despite New Zealand's skipper claiming the throne, the race at the top of the all-rounders chart remains tight, with Kerr's lead sitting at just five rating points as the two influential skippers jostle for positions at the upcoming T20 World Cup in England and Wales that commences on June 12.
