ICC Men’s ODI Rankings: The latest ICC ODI rankings, updated on February 11, have brought significant changes, especially for Indian players.

Shubman Gill has edged closer to the top spot in the batting charts, overtaking Rohit Sharma to claim the No.2 position. Meanwhile, Shreyas Iyer has broken into the top 10 after a crucial knock against England, making India the only team with four batters in the elite list.

In the bowling rankings, Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammed Siraj have dropped places, with Sri Lanka’s Maheesh Theekshana and Namibia’s Bernard Scholtz making big strides. Kuldeep fell to No.5 after losing three spots, while Siraj slipped four places to No.10. However, India still has a strong presence in the rankings ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

Ravindra Jadeja remains India's sole representative in the all-rounders’ rankings at No.10. The category is still dominated by Afghanistan’s Mohammad Nabi, while Zimbabwe’s Sikandar Raza and Afghanistan’s Azmatullah Omarzai hold the next two spots. India will be hoping Jadeja can rise in the rankings with consistent performances in the upcoming ODIs.

With the rankings shaping up before a crucial year in ODI cricket, let’s take a closer look at the top 10 batters, bowlers, and all-rounders, along with their recent performances.

Shubman Gill’s rise to No.2 in the ODI rankings is a testament to his consistency. His strong performances against England helped him displace Rohit Sharma, and he is now just five points behind Babar Azam. If Gill continues his form in the upcoming matches, he has a realistic chance of becoming the No.1-ranked ODI batter.

Shreyas Iyer’s entry into the top 10 highlights India’s batting depth. His aggressive fifty in Nagpur played a key role in India’s victory over England. Iyer’s rise comes at a crucial time, especially as India looks to strengthen their middle order. Meanwhile, Virat Kohli has slipped to No.6, largely due to Harry Tector’s surge in the rankings. Despite Kohli’s drop, India still dominates the top 10 with four players.

While India’s batters have been climbing up, their bowlers have faced setbacks. Kuldeep Yadav, who was once No.2 in the rankings, has now dropped to No.5. His dip comes after a relatively quiet series against England. Meanwhile, Mohammed Siraj has slipped four places to No.10.

Sri Lanka’s Maheesh Theekshana and Namibia’s Bernard Scholtz have been the biggest gainers. Theekshana moved up to No.2 after impressive performances against New Zealand, while Scholtz has continued his steady rise. Rashid Khan remains the No.1 bowler despite his last ODI appearance coming in late 2023.

Top 10 ODI All-Rounders in ICC Men’s ODI Rankings

Ravindra Jadeja remains India’s only all-rounder in the top 10, sitting at No.10. His rating of 221 is far below his career-best 372, which he achieved back in 2013. With India focusing on all-rounders for balance in ODIs, Jadeja will need to step up in upcoming matches to regain his lost ground.

Afghanistan continues to dominate this category, with Mohammad Nabi leading the charts and Azmatullah Omarzai making rapid strides at No.3. Sikandar Raza remains a key player for Zimbabwe, maintaining his No.2 position.

The latest ICC rankings reflect India’s growing strength in the batting department, with Shubman Gill, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, and Shreyas Iyer all in the top 10. However, the decline of bowlers like Kuldeep Yadav and Mohammed Siraj is a concern ahead of the ICC Champions Trophy. Ravindra Jadeja’s low ranking among all-rounders also indicates room for improvement.
