Ishan Kishan‘s 317-run 2026 T20 World Cup campaign has helped the India batter move to second place in the T20I rankings for batters. Abhishek Sharma remains atop the batting charts after his 18-ball half-century in the final against New Zealand.
Kishan now trails Abhishek by just four rating points following his three fifties in the tournament. New Zealand‘s Tim Seifert (sixth) and England‘s Jacob Bethell (16th) also made career-high gains.
Other movers up the rankings after the T20 World Cup were Finn Allen (20th), Player-of-the-Tournament, Sanju Samson (22nd) and Shivam Dube (27th).
Among T20I bowlers, India spinner Varun Chakravarthy lost his position at the summit despite being the joint-highest wicket-taker at the T20 World Cup. Afghanistan’s Rashid Khan is back at No. 1 despite not featuring beyond the group stages.
England’s Adil Rashid moved up to fourth after his 13-wicket outing at the World Cup, while Jasprit Bumrah’s tally of 14 wickets moved him up to sixth. Axar Patel climbed to 17th.
Zimbabwe captain Sikandar Raza and India allrounder Hardik Pandya continue to hold onto the top two spots among T20I allrounders. Mitchell Santner, the New Zealand captain, jumped three spots to ninth while England’s Will Jacks moved up to 13th.
