Indian pacers Nandani Sharma and Kranti Gaud on Tuesday made significant gains in the ICC women’s T20I rankings following their team’s unassailable 2-0 series lead over Zimbabwe in Raipur.
The right-arm seamer Nandani has surged 26 places to 45th in the T20I bowling rankings after taking three wickets across the first two matches against Zimbabwe, including two for 11 in the series opener.
She has also reached a career-best 507 rating points. Teammate Kranti has climbed nine places to 43rd after taking one for 16 in the series opener and one for 15 in the second match.
India’s T20I vice-captain Shafali Verma struck 55 from just 25 deliveries in the second match and remains fourth in the women’s T20I batting rankings. Her teammate Deepti Sharma has moved up one place to joint-37th after scoring 49 from 37 balls in the opening match.
