Suryakumar gets dethroned from top of T20I batter rankings by Head

Australia opener Travis head on Wednesday toppled India's Suryakumar Yadav as the number one batter in the latest ICC T20 rankings. Suryakumar was holding the number one spot since December 2023 but Head's splendid run at the T20 World Cup catapulted him to the top even as his team has been knocked out. Head scored 255 runs with two half centuries, including a 76 against India in a Super Eight contest. The Australian is two points ahead of Suryakumar (842 points) who dropped a spot to second.

However, he has a chance to reclaim the numero uno position as India's campaign at the T20 World Cup is still alive.

England's Phil Salt and the Pakistan duo of Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan round up the top 5 batters.
