Outside the top 10, Suresh Raina has vaulted three places to No.17 while Rohit Sharma has dropped three places to No.19.

In the bowlers rankings, the highest ranked Indian is Mohammed Shami at No.11. Ravichandran Ashwin, Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Ravindra Jadeja have all dropped a place to be ranked at No.17, 18 and 19, respectively. However, Umesh Yadav has been the surprise, climbing eight places to 34th.
