Indian skipper Virat Kohli dethroned his Australia arch rival Steve Smith as the number one Test batsman in the latest ICC rankings released on Wednesday. While Virat Kohli leaped to the Numero Uno Spot courtesy 928 points in the latest rankings, Smith slipped to the second position with 923 points. The Australian run scoring machine had a poor outing with the willow in the two-Test series against Pakistan, where in two innings, he failed to breach the fifty-run mark. However, another Australian batsman, David Warner leapfrogged 12 places to enter the top-five in the rankings. Warner scored a belligerent triple-hundred in the second Day-Night Test against Pakistan in Adelaide. The lefthander remained not out on 335 in the innings, powering Australia to a commanding innings victory. Joe Root has also made significant gains after a double century against New Zealand, climbing up four places to enter the top-10. Among Indians, Cheteshwar Pujara is the next best-ranked batsman after top ranked Virat at 4, while Ajinkya Rahane has slipped to the sixth position. In the bowlers' rankings, Mohammed Shami entered the top-10 once again, while Jasprit Bumrah and Ravichandran Ashwin retained fifth and ninth spot respectively. Pat Cummins continues at the top, while Kagiso Rabada remains second. Jason Holder has displaced Neil Wagner at third position, with the latter slipping a place down.
