Steve Smith Reaches Career Best 7th Rank In ICC ODI Batting Rankings
After a record-breaking 269-run partnership at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), Australia’s opening pair of David Warner and Travis Head have risen significantly in the ODI player rankings, while Steve Smith’s steady play in the home series against England has helped him reach a career-best equaling the seventh position.
A score of 106 in the decisive game let Warner, a former top-ranked batter, finish with 240 runs and take up the Player of the Series honor, moving him up one notch to fifth place on the list.
