T20 World Cup stars make big leaps in latest Women’s Rankings
The latest ICC Women’s T20I Player Rankings reflect the impact of some of the key players at the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2024.
Melie Kerr’s outstanding campaign for champions New Zealand saw her named the Aramco Player of the Tournament. And the leading wicket-taker at the tournament has jumped up to sixth in the ICC T20 Bowling Rankings.
The astonishing Kerr is also 15th in the Batting Rankings, and trails only West Indies captain Hayley Matthews in the All-Rounders Rankings.
New Zealand’s other major wicket-takers at the T20 World Cup have also moved up the standings, with Eden Carson closing in on the top 10, up to 12th, and Rosemary Mair climbing 10 spots to 27th. Mair’s impressive run in the UAE earned her a spot in the ICC Team of the Tournament.
Elsewhere among the bowlers, Australia’s Annabel Sutherland is up into the top 10 with her highest rating to-date, moving up to eighth, above teammate Ash Gardner. England’s Sophie Ecclestone retains top spot.
Other stars of the Women’s T20 World Cup have also made significant gains in the Batting Rankings. South Africa’s Anneke Bosch, who stunned Australia in the semi-final, is up seven spots to 13th, while veteran Suzie Bates has leapfrogged Alyssa Healy into sixth in the only change in the top 10.
Deandra Dottin’s extraordinary return to international cricket with West Indies has seen her climb 36 places, but she remains lower down the standings due to her extended absence from the game.

New Zealand’s Brooke Halliday (up 21 spots) and West Indies pinch-hitter Qiana Joseph (up 46) have also seen sizeable climbs due their fast-scoring contributions in the UAE.
Beth Mooney, Tahlia McGrath and Laura Wolvaardt remain the top three batters.
Pakistan’s captain Fatima Sana has reached a career-best rating in the T20 All-Rounders Rankings, moving up two spots to 11th following her impressive performances in the tournament.
