ICC ODI rankings released, Babar Azam drops to sixth

Published on: June 17, 2026 7:25 PM

The International Cricket Council has released its latest ODI player rankings, showing shifts in batting and bowling positions among leading international cricketers. New Zealand’s Daryl Mitchell retained the top spot in the ODI batting rankings, maintaining consistent form across recent international matches.

Meanwhile, Indian batter Virat Kohli continues to hold the second position in the batting list, while Pakistan captain Babar Azam has slipped to sixth place in the updated standings. The changes reflect recent performances and ongoing competition among top-ranked ODI batters.

In the bowling rankings, Afghan spinner Rashid Khan maintained his dominance by staying at the top position. His consistent wicket-taking ability and control in limited-overs cricket have helped him secure the leading spot once again in the global rankings.

At the same time, Pakistan leg-spinner Abrar Ahmed made a notable improvement by climbing to second place in the ODI bowling rankings. His rise highlights strong recent performances and growing impact in international cricket matches.

Additionally, Pakistan fast bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi improved his position by moving up one spot to ninth in the ODI bowlers’ rankings. His progress reflects steady performances, although competition remains intense among leading fast bowlers worldwide.

Overall, the latest ICC rankings highlight ongoing changes in form and performance among top international cricketers. As teams continue competitive fixtures, further movement in both batting and bowling charts is expected in the coming series.
