Gill Pips Babar To Reclaim Top Spot In ODI Batting Rankings; Theekshana Becomes No.1 Bowler

By IANS News February 19, 2025 • 14:56 PM View: 236

South African Heinrich Klaasen: India batter Shubman Gill leapfrogged former Pakistan captain Babar Azam to claim the No.1 spot on the latest ICC men's ODI player rankings released on Wednesday.

Gill is sitting on top of the batting chart with 796 rating points. Babar drops to second place and 23 rating points behind the new No.1.

This is the second time Gill has held the No.1 ranking in ODI cricket, with the India batter having also gone past Babar to claim the top spot midway through the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup in 2023.
