Jasprit Bumrah DETHRONED as World's No. 1 Test Bowler by THIS South African Legend

Jasprit Bumrah 's reign as the No.1 ranked Test bowler is over with South Africa quick Kagiso Rabada rising to the top. Rabada claims the No.1 spot on the back of strong form for the Proteas during the ongoing ICC World Test Championship, with the right-armer taking his 300th Test wicket during South Africa's recent seven-wicket triumph over Bangladesh in Mirpur. The 29-year-old collected nine wickets during that contest to play a major role in the Proteas' victory and rose three places to jump past Bumrah, Josh Hazlewood and Ravichadran Ashwin in the process to return to the No.1 ranking for Test bowlers for the first time since the start of 2019. Rabada first held the premier ranking in January 2018 and has been consistently sitting inside the top 10 for the bulk of the time since he relinquished the No.1 spot in February 2019.

Australia's Josh Hazlewood sits in second place on the rankings for Test bowlers as Bumrah (third) and Ashwin (fourth) lose ground, while Pakistan spinner Noman Ali is a new member inside the top 10 after his heroics in the third and final Test of his side's recent series against England in Rawalpindi.

Pakistan's Noman Ali took nine wickets for the match and was rewarded with an eight-spot jump to ninth overall and a new career-high rating on the list for Test bowlers, while fellow spinner and teammate Sajid Khan also earns the best rating of his career in improving 12 spots to 38th following his 10 scalps from the same contest.
