The ICC Test Rankings had a change on Wednesday afternoon, as the England National Cricket Team vice-captain Harry Brook became the No.1 Test batter. He surpassed the Australia National Cricket Team opener Travis Head, who was at the top previously. The change in the rankings is made right ahead of the England vs Pakistan game, which is scheduled to start on August 19.
Travis Head was at the top; however, his poor performance in the first Test against the Bangladesh National Cricket Team made him drop three positions, as he is currently at No.4. He scored 22 and 17, which saw some poor batting form in the traditional format as Australia lost to Bangladesh by 9 wickets.
Harry Brook reclaims No. 1 Test batter spot, Travis Head drops
Harry Brook climbs up one spot as he was previously in the second position. The English vice-captain will be looking to perform in the upcoming first Test against the Men in Green. If he fails to perform again, someone from his team, Joe Root or the former Australia captain Steve Smith, might climb up if they perform well.
