In a significant development, India’s Ravindra Jadeja continues to lead the Men’s Test Player Rankings for all-rounders. The gap at the top has narrowed significantly, with Bangladesh's Mehidy Hasan Miraz making a major leap after a sensational showing in the recent Test series against Zimbabwe.

Jadeja, Bumrah, And Root Hold Ground

Ravindra Jadeja remains firmly in control at the top of the all-rounder rankings, with a reduced margin his lead now stands at 73 rating points. Meanwhile, Jasprit Bumrah continues to sit at the top the ICC Test bowling rankings.

England’s Joe Root retains his No. 1 position in the Test batting rankings, with no major changes among the top five despite a flurry of movement lower down the order.

Mehidy Hasan Stellar Performance vs ZIM

According to the latest update on the ICC’s official website, Mehidy Hasan Miraz rose one spot to claim the No. 2 position among Test all-rounders, reaching a career-high rating of 327 points. His surge follows a match-winning display in Bangladesh’s 1-0 series win, where he scored 116 runs and picked up 15 wickets across two Tests.

Mehidy Hasan Miraz Makes Gains Across All Format

Mehidy’s all-round exploits didn’t just boost his standing among all-rounders. His batting ranking also saw a notable jump, climbing eight places to 55th after notching his second Test hundred. On the bowling front, he moved up two spots to 24th overall. 

Other Bangladesh players also benefited from the successful series. Left-arm spinner Taijul Islam and off-spinner Nayeem Hasan made upward moves in the bowling charts. Opener Shadman Islam gained in the batting rankings as well after steady contributions with the bat.

Sean Williams also moved up in the Test batting list after scoring consistently, while debutant spinner Vincent Masekesa impressed in his maiden Test appearance, earning his first ICC ranking just outside the top 100 bowlers.
