Brook, Mushfiqur And Rizwan Make Big Jumps In Men's Test Batting Rankings

T20I Player Rankings: Harry Brook, Mushfiqur Rahim and Mohammad Rizwan have made big jumps as per the latest update to the ICC Men’s Test Batting Rankings released on Wednesday after notching up fine batting performances in the longest format of the game last week.

Though right-hander batter Joe Root maintains his place as the top-ranked Test batter following England's five-wicket win in the opening Test against Sri Lanka in Manchester, Brook making 56 and 32 in the same game has lifted him three places to fourth position, going past India captain Rohit Sharma, Australia batter Steve Smith and Pakistan batter Babar Azam in the rankings.

Brook is now just one place behind his career-best third position, which came following his second-innings century against the West Indies at Trent Bridge last month. Azam, meanwhile, drops a whopping six places to fall to ninth place following lean returns in Pakistan's ten-wicket defeat to Bangladesh in Rawalpindi.
