Babar Azam No 1 batsmen in latest ICC T20 rankings

The recent run of form from quick Josh Hazelwood has been rewarded as the Australia seamer has risen to a career high second place in the latest ICC T20I Bowling Rankings.

Hazlewood has eight wickets at an average of just over eight through the first three games of the T20 series against Sri Lanka and his rich vein of form has not gone unnoticed.

The right-armer jumps four spots on the latest rankings, ahead of Adil Rashid, Rashid Khan and teammate Adam Zampa and only behind South Africa's Tabraiz Shamsi at the top of the charts.

The unlucky bowler is Wanindu Hasaranga, who drops from first to third after sitting out Sri Lanka's six-wicket loss to Australia on Tuesday night after testing positive for COVID-19.

Australia captain Aaron Finch drops one spot to seventh on the Men's ICC T20I Batting Rankings, with New Zealand batter Devon Conway rising one spot to sixth.

The big mover on the all-rounder rankings is UAE's Rohan Mustafa, who climbs five spots and into the top 10 at seven.

There was little movement on the latest ODI rankings, with Pakistan batter Babar Azam holding his place ahead of India duo Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma at the head of the batting rankings.

New Zealand's Trent Boult remains the top ranked ODI bowler, while Bangladesh star Shakib Al Hasan is the highest rated all-rounder.
