In the most recent update to the ICC Men's T20I Player Rankings, released on Wednesday, June 11, 2025, India's Tilak Varma has made significant strides in the batting ranks, while Varun Chakravarthy continues to be a force to reckon with in the bowling department. These rankings reflect performances in recent T20I matches and highlight the dynamic shifts in player standings.

Tilak Varma has ascended to the third position in the ICC Men's T20I Batting Rankings, climbing one spot to achieve a career-best rating of 804 points. This rise places him among the top T20I batters globally, just behind his compatriot Abhishek Sharma, who holds the second position. Australia's Travis Head remains the top-ranked T20I batter. Varma's improved ranking is a testament to his consistent performances and growing influence in the Indian T20I squad. However, Suryakumar Yadav has slipped one place to sixth, although he remains the only other Indian in the top 10 batting rankings.

In the bowling rankings, Varun Chakravarthy is the highest-ranked Indian bowler. While he has fallen slightly, he still maintains a strong presence in the top three. England's Adil Rashid's strong performance in the series against the West Indies has propelled him to second place, pushing Chakravarthy to third. New Zealand's Jacob Duffy currently holds the top spot in the T20I bowling charts. Chakravarthy's current rating is 706. Ravi Bishnoi holds on to the seventh position in the bowling chart. Arshdeep Singh is another Indian bowler who features in the top 10, holding the tenth position.

Several other players have experienced notable movements in the latest rankings. England's Ben Duckett has climbed an impressive 48 places to 16th after his explosive innings of 84 runs off 46 balls in the third T20I against the West Indies. His teammate, Harry Brook, has also gained ground, moving up six spots to joint-38th. West Indies captain Shai Hope has made a significant leap of 14 places to 15th, while Rovman Powell has broken into the top 20.

Among Pakistani players, Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan remain in the 12th and 13th spots, respectively, in the batting rankings. Fast bowlers Haris Rauf and Abbas Afridi have both advanced in the bowling rankings, sharing the 18th position. Shaheen Afridi has also risen to secure the 35th spot.

These ICC T20I rankings reflect the ongoing performances of players in the international arena and provide a dynamic overview of the top performers in both batting and bowling. The movements in the rankings highlight the competitive nature of T20I cricket and the impact of individual performances on a player's standing.
