Alana King, Melie Kerr Claim Top Spots ODI Rankings
The White Ferns: Alana King has reclaimed the No.1 spot in the ICC Women’s ODI bowling rankings following a standout performance during Australia women's tour of the Caribbean. Her rise comes after a match-winning five-wicket haul in St Kitts.
King, who had briefly taken the top spot in March before slipping behind Sophie Ecclestone again last week, returned in emphatic fashion with exceptional figures of 5-19 in 10 overs at Warner Park in Basseterre. Her spell, which included 44 dot balls, played a key role in Australia’s dominant nine-wicket victory and clean 3-0 series sweep. The performance also boosted her position in the ODI all-rounder rankings, lifting her to seventh and pushing Nat Sciver-Brunt down a place.
Meanwhile, New Zealand players enjoyed a surge in the batting charts after an impressive home series against South Africa. Maddy Green reached a career-best ranking, climbing into the top 10, while Melie Kerr made a significant jump after producing one of the most memorable ODI innings in recent history.
