Rohit Sharma once again tops ICC ODI rankings:Former captain features with 3 Indians in top ten; Daryl Mitchell drops down to 2nd spot

Rohit Sharma has once again become the number-1 batsman in the ICC ODI rankings. He surpassed New Zealand’s Daryl Mitchell to claim the top position. Rohit has not played any match since October 25. Mitchell was also not included in New Zealand’s playing-11 for two consecutive ODIs after the previous rankings (November 19) were released. Due to this, Mitchell’s points decreased, and Rohit moved to the number 1 spot again. Rohit had previously achieved the first position for the first time on October 29. By achieving this feat at the age of 38 years and 182 days, Rohit became the oldest number-1 batsman in the ODI rankings. He broke Sachin Tendulkar’s record, who became top ODI batter at the age of 38 years and 73 days. However, Mitchell had pushed him to the second spot last week.
