Mandhana, who is placed in the fourth spot, has added 23 rating points and reached a tally of 728, just five less than Sri Lanka's Chamari Athapaththu in the list led by Natalie Sciver-Brunt of England with 760 rating points. South African Laura Wolvaardt (756) and England's Nat Sciver-Brunt (760) are safely sitting at the top of the rankings.

Harmanpreet, who had slipped three slots after the first two matches, grabbed the joint-ninth spot with New Zealand's Sophie Devine with 654 rating points.
