ICC Rankings: Bumrah Equals Ashwin’s Record Of Joint-highest-rated Indian Test Bowler
T20I Bowling Rankings: India’s spearhead pacer Jasprit Bumrah has solidified his top spot in the ICC Men's Test Bowling Rankings after his phenomenal performance in Brisbane. Bumrah’s nine-wicket haul for 94 runs in the rain-marred third Test against Australia earned him 14 additional rating points, taking his total to a career-high 904.
With his rating, Bumrah equalled the record set by former spinner Ravichandran Ashwin in December 2016, and became the joint highest-rated Indian Test bowler in ICC history. With one more Test in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy to be played in Melbourne, Bumrah has the chance to surpass Ashwin’s record.
South Africa’s Kagiso Rabada and Australia’s Josh Hazlewood are currently ranked second and third, respectively, but trail Bumrah significantly in points.
