Bhuvneshwar Kumar

India's swing bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar today jumped eight places to a career-best 22 following his impressive show in a lost cause in the first Test against South Africa but Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara slipped in the ICC ranking ladder. Kumar had taken six wickets across two South African innings in the first Test, which India lost by 72 runs. In the rankings for the Test batsmen, Australia's Steve Smith remained on 947 points in first position, but there was some movement just behind him.
