2020 proved to be a crucial year for several cricketers, and they made their mark in the cricket world. ICC has released the brand-new Test rankings for this year that allow us to see which player actually ruled 2020. A few experienced players remained at the top of the list, as expected, but there were a few big upgrades as compared to last year.

Australia’s Steve Smith retained his number one spot on the list, with 911 points.

The second spot saw a tie between Indian skipper Virat Kohli and New Zealand’s Kane Williamson.

Williamson’s 251-run knock against the West Indies in the first Test in Hamilton helped the skipper rise up the ICC Test rankings to the No. 2 spot.

The rest of the top 10 positions were filled up Australian batsman David Warner, who is at the No. 6 position. Warner is followed by India’s Cheteswa Pujara.

England’s finest Ben Stokes and Joe Root take the No. 8 and No. 9 spot, respectively, and the list rounds up with New Zealand opener Tom Latham.
