West Indies all-rounder Hayley Matthews has pro-gressed four places to 11th position in the MRF Tyres ICC Women’s ODI Player Rankings after a fine show in the first two matches of their four match-series against South Africa, according to latest rankings issued by ICC on Tuesday.
Matthews, who grabbed two wickets each in both matches, is the highest-ranked bowler from the West Indies with other off-spinner Anisa Moham-med in 25th place and Shakera Selman 26th.
Seam bowler Shamilia Connell has moved up nine slots to 29th after taking three wickets in the two matches.
South Africa captain Sune Luus has advanced seven places to joint-34th among bowlers and is up two places to 44th in the batting list, which is now led by Alyssa Healy with Mithali Raj in second place after Lizelle Lee dropped two places to third.
Lee, ICC’s Women’s ODI Player of the Year in 2021, is out of the series due to COVID-19.
