DUBAI: Pakistan star batter Babar Azam moved up, surpassing Indian batting prodigy Yashasvi Jaiswal in the latest ICC T20I Batting Rankings on Wednesday.
Jaiswal was not named in India’s squad for the ongoing T20I series against Bangladesh, consequently, losing valuable rating points. He is now ranked fifth with 749 rating points, behind Babar Azam (755).
Meanwhile, Pakistani wicket-keeper Mohammad Rizwan is also among the top-ten batters in the T20I rankings, sitting in the sixth spot with 746 rating points.
