ICC men's Test bowler rankings: Cricket is a team sport, but yet every day, every month and every year, we find some select faces that stand out in a crowd of hundreds of players out there representing their national flag on the pitch. Star India pacer Jasprit Bumrah maintained his top spot among Test bowlers in the latest player rankings released by the International Cricket Council (ICC).
Bumrah claimed the top position in the men's bowler Test rankings after becoming the fastest Indian pacer to reach over 150 wickets in long-format cricket during the second Test of the India-England series in Visakhapatnam. He maintained his top spot in the latest rankings release.
In a slight shift at the top of the batter's Test rankings, New Zealand's Kane Williamson ascended to the top position after scoring a pair of centuries in the first Test against South Africa.
