England star Amy Jones continues rise in Rankings update
Dubai, June 10 (UNI) England's wicketkeeper-batter Amy Jones continued her ascent in the latest ICC Women's Rankings update.
Jones, who rose three spots to seventh in the ICC Women's ODI Batting Rankings after a sensational hundred in the opening ODI of the three-game series against West Indies, continued her upward rise on the back of another hundred in the series.
Her 129 from 98 in the second ODI against the Maroon Warriors helped her enter the top five places in the Women's ODI Batting Rankings. She now sits in the fourth spot with 689 Rating Points to her name.
Laura Wolvaardt, Smriti Mandhana, and Nat Sciver-Brunt continue to occupy the top three spots.
Courtesy of Jones' brilliance, England had an unbeaten run in the ODI series that followed the T20Is against West Indies, which they had won 3-0 as well, an ICC report said.
The experienced Kate Cross was another protagonist in England's win, and finished with three scalps in the series, including an economical 1/15 in the final ODI. She gains a spot to sit in eighth place in the ICC Women's ODI Bowling Rankings.
With the upcoming India tour, Jones and Cross along with other England players have an opportunity to further improve their positions in the Women's Rankings.

England's Adil Rashid rises to number two spot in T20I bowling rankings
England spinner veteran Adil Rashid is just one step away from the ICC Men's T20I Bowling Rankings summit, having climbed to the second spot in the rankings issued on Wednesday. Rashid was consistent across England's 3-0 series victory over the West Indies, claiming 1/22 (4 overs) at Chester-le-Street, 1/59 (4 overs) in a high-scoring affair in Bristol, and 2/30 (4 overs) in Southampton, as per ICC. His efforts mean he passes Wanindu Hasaranga and Varun Chakaravarthy to second on the T20I Bowling Rankings, with his rating of 710 in touching distance to Kiwi quick Jacob Duffy on 723. England were strong in their home stand, picking up where they left off in their victorious ODI series efforts against the same opponents. Rashid's teammate Brydon Carse also enjoyed a Bowling Rankings jump, with two wickets across the final two matches, leading to a 16-spot jump to 52nd (493). Runs flowed in the three-match series, with players from both sides enjoying significant jumps on the updated T20I Batter Rankings. A blazing 84 (46) from Ben Duckett in the third T20I was a major help in his 48-spot jump to 16th, with teammate Harry Brook's 35 not out (22) and 34 (20) helping him to a six-spot jump to a share of 38th. On the other side, two knocks in the 40s from Shai Hope helped the West Indies skipper move 14 spots to 15th, while Rovman Powell made a move into the top 20 in large part thanks to an effort of 79 not out from 45 balls in the final T20I. Jason Holder's series of 70 runs and a wicket meanwhile, helped the West Indian up 16 spots to 26 in the All-Rounder Rankings.

Kagiso Rabada Removes Usman Khawaja And Cameron Green In One Over
Last Updated: Khawaja failed to open his account despite facing 20 balls in the first innings of the WTC 2025 final, whereas Green made 4 runs from 3 balls as a No. 3 batter. Kagiso Rabada is on fire for South Africa in the World Test Championship (WTC) 2025 final, which is currently underway at Lord's in London against Australia. The premier pacer opened the bowling attack for the Proteas on Wednesday (June 11) after their captain, Temba Bavuma, opted to bowl first. The 30-year-old fast bowler from Johannesburg didn't concede any runs in the first three overs of the match, and then on the third ball of the fourth over, removed Australian opening batter Usman Khawaja. Khawaja, who is Australia's leading run getter in the WTC 2023-25 cycle, faced 20 balls during his stay at the crease but failed to open his account. He was caught by David Bedingham in the first slip. After Khawaja's dismissal, all-rounder Cameron Green came out to bat at No. 3, and he opened his account with a first-ball four. But on the last ball of the seventh over of Australia's first inning, he handed a routine catch to Aiden Markram in the second slip for 4 runs from three balls. The video of two dismissals in one over was shared by ICC on X, and within no time the clip went viral on the internet. Rabada is South Africa's leading wicket-taker in World Test Championship history, and he will be a key player for the WTC 2023-25 table toppers in the remainder of the match as well.
