Ravichandran Ashwin And Ravindra Jadeja 1 And 2 On ICC Bowling Chart Left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja's maiden 10-wicket match haul against England in Chennai has propelled him to second position behind teammate and India's star off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin. Jadeja's performance has earned him 66 points and brought him within eight points of Ashwin. This is just the second time the
top two spots in the ICC Player Rankings for Test Bowlers have been occupied by India players, with the pair emulating left-arm spinner Bishan Singh Bedi and leg-spinner Bhagwat Chandrasekhar, who were ranked one and two in 1974, the ICC said.
Jadeja grabbed 10 for 154 in the fifth final Test and finished with 26 wickets in the five-match series while Ashwin ended with 28 wickets as India completed a 4-0 series victory, culminating with an innings and 75 runs win in Chennai.
Jadeja, who leapfrogged Josh Hazlewood, James Anderson, Dale Steyn and Rangana Herath, has also gained one place to reach a career-best third rank in the list of all-rounders, also led by Ashwin
