Harry Brook Surges To Career-high Test Rankings, Challenges Joe Root For Top Spot
Test Player Rankings: England’s Harry Brook’s brilliant 171 in the first innings of England’s eight-wicket victory over New Zealand at Christchurch has propelled him to second place on the ICC Men’s Test Player Rankings for batters, closing the gap on teammate Joe Root.
Brook’s seventh Test century earned him a career-high rating of 854 and reduced the gap between him and Root to just 41 points. The former England captain endured a rare failure in the same match, registering his first Test duck in over two years.
The shake-up in the rankings also saw India’s Yashasvi Jaiswal drop to fourth, while England’s Ollie Pope (up eight places to 32nd) and captain Ben Stokes (up seven spots to 34th) climbed the ladder after contributing to the victory over the Black Caps.
