Shaheen Afridi moves into ICC top five after tri-series wickets
Fakhar Zaman climbs nine places to 37th in the batting table on the back of 127 off 99 balls in the final against Sri Lanka in Lahore.
Pakistan captain Shaheen Shah Afridi climbed one place to fifth in the ICC men's ODI bowling rankings, the table released on Wednesday shows, after he took 10 wickets in five matches in the tri-series and finished as its second-highest wicket-taker.
Shaheen holds 621 rating points. Afghanistan's Rashid Khan stays first and South Africa's Keshav Maharaj second. Pakistan's Abrar Ahmed, who did not play any of the tri-series matches, slipped one place to fourth, according to the rankings reported by Minute Mirror.
Haris Rauf moved up five places to 24th after taking seven wickets in five matches.
Fakhar Zaman was Pakistan's biggest gainer in the batting table, rising nine places to 37th on 548 points. The left-handed opener made 127 off 99 balls, with 11 fours and six sixes, in the final against Sri Lanka at Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, an innings that helped Pakistan win the title. It was his first ODI century in three years; the previous one was an unbeaten 126 against New Zealand at the 2023 World Cup.
Babar Azam remains Pakistan's highest-ranked batter at ninth with 661 points. Salman Ali Agha holds 13th place on 622 points.
Mohammad Rizwan dropped two places to 44th, Saim Ayub fell four places to joint 68th and Shadab Khan went down one place to 93rd.
India's Shubman Gill leads the batting rankings with 841 points, ahead of New Zealand's Daryl Mitchell and India's Virat Kohli.
Rashid Khan's lead in the bowling table is unchanged, with Maharaj behind him and Abrar third-placed before this update and now fourth. Shaheen's move up one place came at the expense of the bowler directly above him, though the report did not name who dropped.
The rankings cover the period in which Pakistan played the tri-series at home and beat Sri Lanka in the final in Lahore.
