Deepti Sharma has claimed the number one spot in the T20 International bowling rankings for the first time. Her excellent bowling performance in the first T20 series match against Sri Lanka in Visakhapatnam, where she took 1 wicket for just 20 runs in 4 overs, improved her rating.
Deepti has overtaken Australia's Annabel Sutherland by a margin of just one rating point. She is currently at the top spot with 737 rating points.
