ISLAMABAD, Feb 9 (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 9th Feb, 2022 ) :Fakhar Zaman and Joe Root broke into the top 10 of the MRF Tyres ICC Men's ODI Batting Rankings while Rohit Sharma edged closer to Virat Kohli after his half-century in the first ODI against West Indies.

According to the latest rankings updates issued by International cricket Council (ICC) on Wednesday, Shai Hope lost out on valuable points and slipped out of the top 10 of the MRF Tyres ICC Men's ODI Batting Rankings after the first ODI against India.

Fakhar Zaman and Joe Root broke into the top 10 of the batting rankings as a result, but the major leap happened elsewhere.

Oman's Jatinder Singh, who made a hundred in the first match of the UAE series, part of the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup League 2, jumped 26 places to break into top 100 of the batting rankings.

Jatinder is the second-highest run-scorer in the League 2 tournament with 594 runs in 23 matches.

Babar Azam and Virat Kohli continued to hold onto the top two spots, but Rohit Sharma, with 807 rating points after his fifty in the first ODI of the series against West Indies, is sneaking in on Virat Kohli, who is at No.2 in the ODI Batting Rankings with 828 rating points.

There was no movement in the top 10 of the bowling rankings, but Jason Holder, following his half-century in the first ODI against India, went up four places in the all-rounder rankings to get into the top 20.
