Rohit Sharma achieves career best ICC Test ranking
New Delhi, Oct 7: Rohit Sharma's stellar performances in India's win over South Africa in the first of the three-match Test series being played between the two sides has helped him rise to a career best ranking of 17th in the ICC Test rankings. In the newly updated rankings, Rohit has jumped a whopping 36 places thanks to his twin centuries in Visakhapatnam.
Since being promoted to the opening slot in limited overs cricket in 2013, Rohit has established himself as one of the best players in the format but he never managed to replicate that success in Tests as a middle order and lower middle order batsman. He was finally promoted to the top of the order ahead of the recently concluded first Test between India and South Africa and went on to score 176 in the first innings and 127 in the second innings and was man of the match at the end of it.
