Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja has replaced Jason Holder as the number one all-rounder in the updated ICC Test Rankings. Jadeja progressed one spot in the latest rankings list updated on June 23. The rankings were updated after the conclusion of the two-match Test series between South Africa and West Indies in St Lucia. Ravindra Jadeja reclaims the top position after having topped both the bowling and the all-rounders' list in the ICC Test Rankings back in 2017. West Indies all-rounder Jason Holder was on top of the all-rounders' list with 412 points. However, he dropped around 28 points after an ordinary series against the Proteas at home.

Ravindra Jadeja is at the 16th position on the ICC Test Bowling Rankings

The Indian left-hander is on 386 rating points, two ahead of Jason Holder. England all-rounder Ben Stokes is third on the list, whereas Indian off-spinner R Ashwin is on the fourth spot.

Ravindra Jadeja is also at the 16th position on the ICC Test Bowling Rankings, whereas his spin partner, Ravi Ashwin, is second. Ashwin is just one spot behind Australian pacer Pat Cummins. Ravindra Jadeja is currently playing in the ongoing World Test Championship (WTC) final against New Zealand in Southampton. The southpaw scored 15 runs in the first innings and dismissed Tim Southee to end New Zealand's first innings on 249. Jadeja is anticipated to play a vital role for team India on Reserve Day. The sixth day is going to decide the fate of the historic match.

Meanwhile, four wickets down in India's second innings. The Indian cricket team is increasing their lead on the Reserve Day (Day 6) of their ongoing World Test Championship (WTC) Final fixture against New Zealand. Wicket-keeper batsman Rishabh Pant and Ajinkya Rahane are currently on the crease. The duo will be trying to build some momentum. On the other hand, NZ has started brilliantly. Young pacer Kyle Jamieson picked up two wickets. The pacer has sent Virat Kohli and Cheteshwar Pujara back to the pavilion. The Men in Blue will hope to absorb the pressure applied by opposition bowlers and build some stability as the game proceeds.
