ICC Rankings: New Zealand’s Daryl Mitchell Surpasses Kohli for Top Spot
ICC Men's ODI Player Rankings: Following the conclusion of the ODI series against New Zealand, Virat Kohli has suffered a setback in the latest rankings for batsmen. He has now slipped from first place to second.
The latest ICC batsmen rankings that came out on Wednesday reveal that Daryl Mitchell of New Zealand is now at the top, surpassing Indian batsman Virat Kohli.

On the other side, the performance of the bat of Virat Kohli was also good. Kohli scored 240 runs in the series with the average of 80. Kohli also scored a century and a fifty in this series, but Mitchell scored more than 100 runs, leaving Kohli behind by 50 ratings points, securing the first position in the ICC rankings.
This is the best rating score of Daryl Mitchell's career so far. Virat Kohli has now slipped to second place with 795 rating points. Afghanistan's Ibrahim Zadran remains in third place with 764 rating points, while Rohit Sharma has dropped one spot to fourth with 757 rating points.
