ICC rankings update: Gill ODI batting #1, Siraj bowling #1, 4 Indian bowlers in top 10, 3 Indian batsmen in top 6

[Trichromatic]

I guess this is first time in history that a team has 4 bowlers in top 4 rankings of ICC.

 

3 batsmen are in top 6.

[Trichromatic]

Jadeja is at #19 in bowlers rankings,

Iyer #18, KL #24 in batsmen rankings.

hahaha PKMKB

These rankings are meaningless....Gill flopped in this world cup when much more was expected from him. Indian batting is still all about Rohit and Kohli.

He's been ok. Not complete flop. Has had a couple of 50s and some decent starts.

 

Hope he does something in the KOs.

How is 2 fifties in 6 games a flop?

Gill's ceiling is higher. He should be among the Top 10 run scoring batsmen. He can still redeem himself if he plays well in knockouts.

[sugumarrising]

Is this the first time 4 bowlers from the same team are in the top 10 odi rankings?

Yes considering his ability...more was expected from him. After the starts Rohit gave, he had the option to stats paddle without pressure but failed to do so. Only against Pakistan he looked good and that too for a short time.

Looked good against almost everyone tho except Eng. Pak, NZ, SA as well. Pak and NZ lost on the slog.

 

Hopefully statpads against Netherlands to get ready for KO.

A small matter of losing a lot of body strength (lost 4 kilos) due to Dengue. That he was not ruled out thus allowing the TM to go ahead with their plan A is to his credit. Could he have done better? Sure, but let's put things in perspective.

[Gollum]

Gill lol, all hype, very little substance. Even Babar as #1 had more credibility. 

[Number]

Gill still needs to find ways to score big against good attacks. He starts well then finds a way to get out.

[putrevus]

Gill has to do more, hopefully , he will play important knocks in semifinal and finals.

Exactly. Gill is now no1 despite his performance speaks about rankings.

Gill had terrific season before he got sick.There is a reason why he is number one in rankings , just like Siraj.

 

Both of them have not delivered  big during world cup yet.Let us hope their best is yet to come and we will see them in knock outs.

Gill will be Ponting of 2003.

[Frustrated]

Gill being ranked 1 is mostly due to his earlier run of scores (in Asia Cup and the bilateral series vs Aus).  

[vvvslaxman]

Don't care for ranking. But this Gill one is very much handy to troll these padosis.
