The last ICC Test rankings of the year see a fair bit of movement in the wake of the recently-concluded, and quickly-concluded, Boxing Day Test match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground between Australia and England in the Ashes. There are points to note for players worldwide, particularly for Indian stars, as they see plenty of movement despite a nine-month period where they will play no Test cricket.

Key Highlights

  • India's captain Shubman Gill talks to Jasprit Bumrah.(AP) In particular, Shubman Gill sees the loss of position for Aussie wicketkeeper Alex Carey work in his favour, despite having missed three of the four innings in South Africa’s recent tour of India.
  • With Carey dropping four positions and out of the top 10, Gill climbs right back up, once again entering the top 10 of the rankings after a brief period earlier this year.
  • He remains the second-highest ranked Indian batter, behind Yashasvi Jaiswal.
  • The big riser at the top of the pile is Harry Brook, whose dogged and determined efforts to get runs on the board worked in his favour on a tricky surface at the MCG.
  • As a result, he leapfrogs over three members of the top five, and ends the year behind only his countryman Joe Root.
