Anderson is the oldest bowler to achieve the top ranking since former Australian fast bowler Clarrie Grimmett in 1936. Anderson took 7 wickets in the Test against New Zealand last week and England won the match by 267 runs. Cummins has lost two places and has come at the third position.

Indian off-spinner R Ashwin is in second place. Apart from Ashwin, India’s Ravindra Jadeja and Akshar Patel have also benefited in the latest ICC rankings. These players have performed brilliantly so far in the Test series against Australia. This is the sixth time when James Anderson has become the number-1 bowler of the Test.
