Babar Azam's reign as the number 1 ODI batter is in danger.

Shubman Gill is quickly closing the gap and has now jumped to his career-best ODI ranking of number 2 in the latest ICC rankings for batters.

He has looked in good touch during Asia Cup 2023 and already has 2 half-centuries under his belt.

Other Indian batters are also gaining ground and it feels like a full-flow attack on Pakistan's dominance in ODIs.

Virat Kohli rose two places to 8th and Rohit Sharma also jumped two spots of to the 9th position on the latest batter rankings. Interestingly, India has 3 players inside the top 10 for the first time in over four and a half years.

As a result, Imam-ul-Haq dropped 1 place to fifth and his compatriot Fakhar Zaman lost 3 spots and is now 10th.

Kuldeep Yadav was also rewarded for an exceptional year as the left-arm spinner climbed 5 places to the 7th spot in the bowlers' rankings.
