Dubai: Indian skipper Harmanpreet Kaur has climbed up four spots to reach the fifth position in the latest ICC Women's ODI Players Rankings after a match-winning 143 off 111 deliveries against England in the second ODI at Canterbury. She leads a bunch of Indian players who have made rapid gains in the rankings after some excellent performances that helped complete a 3-0 sweep over England in their ICC Women's Championship (IWC) series.
Smriti Mandhana and Deepti Sharma have also moved up in the latest update that considers performances in the last two matches of that series as well as the IWC series between the West Indies and New Zealand. Mandhana, a formerly top-ranked batter, who scored 40 and 50 in the two matches, has inched up one place to take the sixth position while Sharma's unbeaten 68 not out in the third match at Lord's has lifted her eight places to 24th position.
