In T20Is, New Zealand captain Mitchell Santner registered the biggest gains, continuing his strong form from the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup into the ongoing home series against South Africa.

Santner, who has picked up three wickets and scored 35 runs in the opening two matches of the five-game series, climbed 11 places to 13th in the T20I bowlers’ rankings. He also moved up two spots to joint seventh in the T20I all-rounders’ list, achieving a career-best rating.

Among his teammates, Lockie Ferguson rose 18 places to 51st in the T20I bowling rankings, while Devon Conway gained four spots to reach 70th among batters. India’s Abhishek Sharma continues to lead the T20I batting rankings.

South Africa also saw movement, with George Linde climbing 11 places to 23rd in the T20I all-rounders’ list after his contribution of 33 runs in the second match. Fellow pacer Ottneil Baartman jumped 23 places to 73rd in the T20I bowlers’ rankings.
