India's Varun Chakravarthy went up as many as 25 places to be ranked fifth after his five-for in the third T20I

India's mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy has jumped to the fifth position in the latest ICC T20I Rankings (bowling). The star spinner broke into the top five after his stellar performance in the ongoing five-match T20I series against England at home.

A sensational Varun Chakravarthy won the player of the match award despite India losing the 3rd T20I of the 5 match series. Chakravarthy took his wicket-tally to 10 in the series as he continued his incredible rise in his second stint in the Indian team.

Apart from Varma, Abhishek Sharma has been another bright spot for India, making a massive jump of 59 places to reach 40th. England's Liam Livingstone (up to 32nd) and Ben Duckett (up to 68th) were also significant movers, highlighting the strong performances of both sides in the high-stakes series.

Varun Chakravarthy's record-breaking 5/24 couldn't prevent India's 26-run loss to England in the third T20I at Rajkot. England posted 171/9, clinching the match despite India's strong bowling attack.
