Virat KohliThree Indians -- Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan and Mahendra Singh Dhoni -- figure among the top-10 ODI batsmen.

While Kohli continues to be the highest-ranked Indian batsmen at No 4 in the latest rankings, Dhawan is at six and Dhoni at eight in the chart, still headed by South Africa's A B de Villiers.

Unfortunately, there’s no Indian in the top-10 of the bowlers' list, headed by Australia's Mitchell Starc.

In the One-day team rankings, India retained second place by virtue of making the last four stage in the recently-concluded ICC World Cup.

With 116 points, India is just six points behind World champions Australia, who 122 rating points.

Following India are South Africa (112), Sri Lanka (108), New Zealand (107, England (101) and Pakistan (95).

Pakistan, however, could lose seventh place if they lose 0-3 to Bangladesh in the upcoming thee-match ODI series, starting in Mirpur on Friday.

But they have a chance to reduce England's six-point advantage by one if they win the series 3-0, while a 2-1 victory will see Azhar Ali's team remain on 95 points.
