Bumrah beats Ravi Ashwin's all-time Test rankings record
The Statesman|January 02, 2025
India's star quick Jasprit Bumrah's unrelenting display in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar series yielded him nine wickets in the Boxing Day Test against Australia, and helped him consolidate his lead as the No. 1 Test bowler in the recent rankings update.

With rating points of 907, Bumrah has now gone past Ashwin's 904 rating points, achieved in December 2016, and makes him the highest-ever ranked Indian Test bowler in ICC rankings history. 907 points places the pacer as joint-17th in the all-time list with Derek Underwood of England.

Among the batters, Yashasvi Jaiswal's gritty knocks at the MCG helped him rise a place up to a career-best fourth place, while Nitish Kumar Reddy's maiden Test century in the first innings of the Boxing Day Test, vaulted him 20 places to 53.
