    ICC Rankings: Steve Smith remains the number one Test batsman
  • Australian batsman Steve Smith was on a roll in the just-concluded Ashes, where he finished with 774 runs in just seven innings at a Bradmanesque average of 110.57.

    As a result, he shot up to the number one in the ICC Test Rankings for batsmen, dethroning Virat Kohli by a big margin.

    We take a look at the latest rankings.
