Ravichandran Ashwin loses top spot in ICC Test ranking

Dubai: Indian off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin yesterday lost his top position in the ICC Test rankings, displaced by England pacer Stuart Broad, even as Ajinkya Rahane remained the country's top-ranked batsman at joint 10th in the latest list.

Ashwin, however, continued to top the all-rounders' list, followed by Bangladesh's Shakib Al Hasan.

Broad unseated Ashwin after producing a Man of the Match performance in the Johannesburg Test, which has also confirmed that India will replace South Africa as the top-ranked Test side when the table is updated at the end of the Centurion Test.
