Pakistan’s match-winning leg-spinner Yasir Shah has shot to the top of the International Cricket Council Test bowling rankings - at the expense of England’s James Anderson.

Yasir’s 10-wicket haul in the first Test at Lord’s was the man-of-the-match performance in Pakistan’s 75-run win.

It has also earned him a rise from fourth place to the top of the ICC bowlers’ rankings, knocking Anderson down to third and Stuart Broad to fourth. Yasir is the first Pakistani to top the table since his fellow leg-spinner Mushtaq Ahmed did so 20 years ago.

England’s all-time leading wicket-taker Anderson reached the top of the list for the first time after his impressive series against Sri Lanka this summer. But he was controversially left out of England’s squad for the first Test against Pakistan, as the selectors played safe with his recovery from a shoulder injury.

Anderson is expected to be back in the England squad - set to be announced on Monday - for the second Test, on his home ground at Old Trafford this week.

In his absence, Chris Woakes’ breakthrough performance for a match haul of 11 for 102 at Lord’s has meant he has moved up 28 places to number 36.
