Rohit Sharma has become the number one ODI batsman with 781 points. So, Virat Kohli is at second position with 773 points. Apart from this, if we talk about KL Rahul, he is at 12th position with 649 points. Apart from this, names of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer are included in the top 10. Let us tell you that Shreyas Iyer and Shubman Gill did not play in the ODI series against South Africa due to injuries.

In the last phase of his career, Virat Kohli has jumped two places to reach second position in the ODI rankings. 37-year-old Kohli was in his best form in the three-match series. He scored 302 runs and was named Player of the Series. Virat Kohli scored consecutive centuries by scoring 135 runs in the first ODI and 102 runs in the second ODI in Guwahati and then played an unbeaten inning of 65 runs in the third and decisive match in Visakhapatnam. Due to his excellent performance in these three matches, he confirmed his place in the top-2 in the ODI rankings.

Apart from this, talking about other Indian batsmen, Shubman Gill, who was rested during the series, remained strong at No. 5, which shows the stability at the top of India’s ODI lineup. KL Rahul’s calm performance as stand-in captain has seen him move up two places to No. 12, continuing his upward trend in white-ball cricket over the last 12 months.
