India’s all-rounder Hardik Pandya has reached the top spot in the latest ICC Men’s T20I Rankings update, sharing the position with Sri Lanka’s Wanindu Hasaranga. Pandya is the first Indian man to achieve this feat, propelled by his impressive performance in the T20 World Cup 2024. He scored 144 runs at a strike rate of 151.57 and took 11 wickets in eight games during the tournament.
In the final against South Africa, Hardik Pandya played a crucial role, dismissing Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller and successfully defending 16 runs in the last over, helping India clinch its second T20 World Cup title.
In other movements within the top 10 of the T20I all-rounder rankings, Marcus Stoinis, Sikandar Raza, Shakib Al Hasan, and Liam Livingstone each rose by one spot. Afghanistan’s Mohammad Nabi dropped four positions, moving out of the top five.
