LAHORE: Pakistan’s left-handed batsman Saud Shakeel entered the top 10 for Test batters as he improved 20 spots to move to seventh overall in the latest rankings issued by the International Cricket Council (ICC) on Wednesday.

The improvement comes on the back of his innings of 134 against England in three-match series which was won by Pakistan 2-1.

New Zealand's Devon Conway moved up eight places to 28th while Tom Latham jumped six rungs to 34th and Glenn Phillips improved 16 spots to 45th and South Africa’s Kyle Verreynne moved up by 14 places to 32nd.

Pakistan spinner Noman Ali is a new member inside the top 10 Test bowlers after his heroics in the third and final Test of his side’s recent series against England in Rawalpindi.
