Joe Root re-enters the ICC men’s ODI batting top 10 following a three-match ODI series against India in which he scores strongly and remains unbeaten throughout. After England’s 2-1 series win, Root climbs to No. 8 in the ODI batting rankings, with reports highlighting scores of 76*, 99*, and 74* across the three games. The latest updates also maintain India’s high standing at the top of the ODI chart: Shubman Gill remains second, with Virat Kohli still ranked near the leading spots, while Rohit Sharma holds No. 4 and is reported to have narrowed the points gap after the series. Daryl Mitchell continues to lead the ODI batting rankings at No. 1. Other outlets add that Gill, Rohit, and Kohli inch closer to the top-ranked batters as the rankings update reflects recent performances. One outlet also notes Root’s broader achievement of being ranked in the ODI top 10 and the Test top 10 at the same time. Across sources, the rankings movement is attributed primarily to Root’s unbeaten run in the England–India series and ongoing positioning of India’s top-order batters.
