Kohli has been undergoing a prolonged rough patch. However, in the just-concluded T20I series against Sri Lanka at home, he was decent, scoring 69n in a couple of innings at an average of 34.50, including a half-century. Although he has slipped to the tenth spot, this performance has allowed him to retain the place.

Pakistan skipper Babar Azam takes the top spot among the batters. As for the bowlers, none of the Indians features in the top ten. Seamer Bhuvneshwar Kumar happens to be the highest-ranked Indian on the 20th spot. South African spinner Tabriaz Shamsi dominates the leading site in the department.
