Jasprit Bumrah's long reign as the world's No.1 Test bowler ended Wednesday, with Australia pacer Mitchell Starc taking the top position for the first time in his career after his match-winning performance against Bangladesh.
Bumrah had held the No.1 ranking for much of the past two years after first reaching the top in February 2024. His absence from India's ongoing World Test Championship series against Sri Lanka, combined with Starc's 10-wicket haul in the second Test against Bangladesh in Mackay, led to the change at the top.
