Proteas captain Temba Bavuma climbs to number 5 in world Test batting rankings

Bavuma's unbeaten innings on a difficult pitch at Eden Gardens allowed the Proteas bowlers to dismiss the hosts for just 93 and complete a memorable 30-run victory, South Africa's first win in India in 15 years.

Simon Harmer's hauls of 4-30 and 4-21 in the first Test have lifted him 20 slots to a career-best 24th position while India spinners Kuldeep Yadav (up two places to a career-best 13th position) and Ravindra Jadeja (up four places to 15th) have also moved up the bowling list.

Bangladesh captain Nazmul Hossain Shanto (up four places to 34th) and Mahmudul Hasan Joy (up 19 places to 74th) prosper after their centuries in an innings victory over Ireland in Sylhet. Ireland's Paul Stirling has progressed from 96th to 80th position.

Daryl Mitchell has become the first player from New Zealand since Glenn Turner in 1979 to top the ODI batting rankings after his match-winning century against West Indies in their series opener in Christchurch.

The 34-year-old's 118-ball knock of 119 that won him the man-of-the-match award, has helped him overtake Ibrahim Zadran of Afghanistan and edge past Rohit Sharma of India by just one rating point. Rohit's first reign at the top lasted only 22 days.

While Turner was the last New Zealand player at the top of the ODI batting rankings 46 years ago, players like Nathan Astle, Ross Taylor and Kane Williamson have reached as high as number three in the table.

Pakistan's star batter Babar Azam, who struck an unbeaten 102 in the second ODI against Sri Lanka in Rawalpindi has moved up one slot to sixth position while Mohammad Rizwan and Fakhar Zaman have gained five places each to reach 22nd and 26th positions, respectively, after slamming two half-centuries each against Sri Lanka.

In the T20I player rankings, New Zealander Tim Robinson's knock of 45 in the final match against the West Indies has helped him move up eight places to a career-best 15th position and seam bowler Jacob Duffy has inched up from third to second position.

Mitchell Santner (up five places to 18th) and Mohammad Nawaz (up four places to 27th) are among others to progress.
