Mehidy Hasan Miraz Reaches Career-High No. 2 in ICC Test All-Rounder Rankings
Bangladesh player Mehidy Hasan Miraz's superb form with both bat and ball see him headline the ICC Men's Test Player Rankings after the latest weekly update carried out after the second Test against Zimbabwe in Chattogram.
The 27-year-old struck a fine 104 and took his third five-wicket haul of the series to become the second ranked all-rounder for the first time, overtaking South Africa's Marco Jansen in the list led by India's Ravindra Jadeja. Mehidy is on a career-best 327 rating points, but Jadeja is way ahead with 400 points.
Mehidy, who won the Player of the Match and the Player of the Series awards, has also reached a career-best 55th position in the batting rankings after gaining eight slots while his second innings haul of five for 32 has lifted him two places to 24th position in the list led by India's Jasprit Bumrah.
Left-handed opener Shadman Islam's first innings century has helped him gain 17 places to reach 60th position after also contributing in Bangladesh's victory by an innings and 106 runs that helped draw the series 1-1.
Left-arm spinner Taijul Islam (up seven places to 16th) remains Bangladesh's top-ranked bowler after finishing with a nine-wicket match haul while off-spinner Nayeem Hasan (up six places to 54th) has also made significant progress.
Zimbabwe's Sean Williams is back in the top 20 after notching a half-century in the first innings, reaching a career-best-equalling 19th position. Ben Curran is up 20 places to 94th.
