Athapaththu, Samarawickrama Gain Big In Women's ODI Rankings
T20 World Cup: Ahead of the T20 World Cup in UAE, Sri Lanka skipper Chamari Athapaththu and Harshitha Samarawickrama gained big in the latest ICC women's ODI rankings released on Tuesday.
The update comes after Sri Lanka's clinical performance in the last and third ODI against Ireland Belfast which the visiting side won by eight wickets. Athapaththu dominated in the match with a well-compiled 48 with the bat and a three-wicket haul with the ball, helping the Sri Lanka all-rounder rise all three rankings categories.
Athapaththu gained six rating points to retain her position in fourth and close in on the No.1 ranked ODI batter in the world Nat Sciver-Brunt, while teammate Harshitha Samarawickrama improved fifteen places to rise to 29th spot and obtained a new career-best mark of her own following a score of 48* against Ireland.
