Mitchell Marsh And Mohammad Naim Among The Players Making Gains In The T20I Batting Rankings

The likes of Mitchell Marsh and Mohammad Naim have moved up in the T20 batting rankings in the updated standings. Furthermore, Pakistan and West Indian players have also gained in the rankings, followed by Indian players after the T20 series against Sri Lanka. Australia‘s Mitchell Marsh and Bangladesh’s Mohammad Naim have captured the 25th spot in the batting rankings.

Mitchell Marsh has been the sole performer with the bat amid Australia’s struggles with the bat in the ongoing T20 series in Bangladesh. The seam-bowling all-rounder scored two successive innings of 45; however, has not gained much support from the other end. Mohammad Naim’s 29-ball 30 in the first T20I has caused him to climb upwards.

Bangladesh all-rounder Shakib Al Hasan also reached 56th in the batting rankings and 18th amongst all-rounders. For the West Indies, Nicholas Pooran’s unbeaten 62 in the series opener against Pakistan surged him to the 48th position. Pooran’s teammate Jason Holder bagged the 53rd spot, while Pakistan’s Hasan Ali moved up to the 60th slot. Sri Lanka’s Dushmantha Chameera also climbed one spot to the 18th position.

Bangladesh left-arm seamer surges ahead:

Mustafizur Rahaman, who has continued to deceive Australia’s batsman, advanced 16 places to 30th, while Caribbean leggie Hayden Walsh captured the 34th spot. India’s Bhuvneshwar Kumar reached the 16th position from 12th and Sri Lanka spinner Akila Dananjaya jumped 29 slots to move to the 36th in the rankings.
