India’s influence in the top 10 remains persistent, with Yashasvi Jaiswal holding on to 4th place (858 rating points) after some tremendously successful experiences of late. The most successful player of the two is Shubman Gill, who had the largest jump into 6th position, leaping 15 places with a new career high of 807 rating points on the strength of his double century against England.

Steve Smith remains solid in 5th position (813 rating points); Temba Bavuma (South Africa) is in 7th position (790 rating points); Rishabh Pant (India) is in 8th position (790 rating points); and Kusal Mendis (Sri Lanka) is in 9th position (781 rating points).
