The bat of Pakistan cricket team captain Babar Azam was completely silent at the moment. He didn’t score in any way. Now the Pakistan team is touring South Africa and the T20 series has also begun. He also failed to score in the first game. This is why his ranking is also declining. Especially if we talk about the T20 rankings released by the ICC, then their rankings have dropped quite a bit. Meanwhile, the team’s new captain Mohammad Rizwan has also gone ahead of them with better performances.
Travis Head is the number one batsman in ICC T20 rankings
Travis Head is ranked No. 1 in the T20 rankings released by ICC. His current rating is 855. Phil Salter was second. India’s Tilak Verma and Suryakumar Yadav also managed to retain their top five spots. Meanwhile, Babar Azam suffered losses while Mohammad Rizwan made gains.

His rating has now dropped to 710. Mohammad Rizwan was the number one batsman in the T20 rankings until recently, but his results have since dropped a lot. Now he has started to get up.
