Indian youngster claims the top spot in ICC bowling rankings

Sport

India spinner Ravi Bishnoi has continued his remarkable recent rise by becoming the No.1 bowler on the latest MRF Tyres ICC Men's T20I Player Rankings.

Bishnoi only made his international debut at the start of last year, but some consistent performances for his country has seen the 23-year-old rise four spots on the updated rankings to claim the premier position.

The right-armer was recently named Player of the Series during India's successful 4-1 series triumph over Australia on home soil and has picked up a total of 34 wickets from 21 T20I matches since debuting against the West Indies in February 2022.

Bishnoi's rise to the top has not been unexpected, with the leg-spinner first catching the eye in South Africa at the ICC Men's Under 19 Cricket World Cup in 2020 when he finished the tournament with the most wickets (17) of all players as India finished as runners up behind fellow Asian side Bangladesh.
