Indian opening batter Shafali Verma climbed two places to reach a career-high No. 4 in the ICC Women’s T20I Batting Rankings following her standout performances at the 2026 Asian Games.
Highest Indian Ranking: Verma reached 756 rating points, leapfrogging teammate Smriti Mandhana (No. 6) and West Indies captain Hayley Matthews to become India’s top-ranked T20I batter.
Asian Games Heroics: The ranking surge was driven by her strong run in Aichi, including a maiden T20I century—an unbeaten 100 off 49 balls in the semi-final against Bangladesh—and a 29-ball 48 in the gold medal match victory over Sri Lanka.
Overall Top 5: Australia's Beth Mooney continues to hold the No. 1 spot, followed by teammate Georgia Voll (No. 2) and South Africa captain Laura Wolvaardt (No. 3).
In the T20I bowling rankings, India's spin duo of N Shree Charani and Deepti Sharma continued to occupy the top spots. Both players recorded career-best points tallies, climbing 15 and 22 places respectively following impressive performances in recent times. Pakistan captain Fatima Sana made gains in the bowlers' list, moving up five places to 24th.
