Cricket: Root Loses No.1 Spot To Williamson; Smith Surges Towards Top In ICC Test Rankings After Lord's Test
ICC Men’s Test Player Rankings: A major shake-up witnessed in the latest ICC Men’s Test Player Rankings as England star Joe Root lost the top spot to New Zealand's Kane Williamson while Australia batter Steve Smith has made rapid progress towards the top after the second Ashes Test at Lord's.
Root, who could only manage scores 10 and 18, slipped to fifth position, allowing injured New Zealand veteran slid up one place to claim the top ranking just one rating point ahead of Smith.
