T20I Player Rankings: The top performers of the recently-concluded ICC Women's T20 World Cup in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) have made big gains in the latest Women’s T20I Player Rankings, reflecting the impact of the mega event on the rankings. Amelia Kerr’s outstanding campaign for champions New Zealand saw her named the Player of the Tournament. And the leading wicket-taker at the tournament has jumped up to sixth in the ICC T20 Bowling Rankings.

Kerr has also moved to 15th in the Batting Rankings, and trails only West Indies captain Hayley Matthews in the All-Rounders Rankings.

New Zealand’s other major wicket-takers at the T20 World Cup have also moved up the standings, with Eden Carson closing in on the top 10, up to 12th, and Rosemary Mair climbing 10 spots to 27th. Mair’s impressive run in the UAE earned her a spot in the ICC Team of the Tournament, the ICC said in a report on its website.
