Thanks
to his performance in the first Test against South Africa, star Indian batsman Virat
Kohli has moved nine places above to achieve his career-best 11th
position in the latest released Reliance ICC Rankings for Test batsmen. He is
the second-highest
ranked Indian batsman after Cheteshwar Pujara who is ranked seventh spot
after earning 37 rating points. South African batsman A B de Villiers, who is
being followed by his compatriot Hashim Amla ranked second, is leading the ICC Rankings
for Test batsmen.
South African bowler Vernon
Philander has achieved the top ranked after displacing Dale Steyn on the Reliance
ICC Player Rankings for Test bowlers. The 28-year-old player has claimed this
coveted position for the first time of his career. Dale Steyn dominated this
list since July 2009 when he went past Sri Lanka’s Muttiah Muralitharan. The
duration of his dominance at the number-one position was 186 matches which was the
second highest record after Muralitharan.
