Jason Holder has entered the top 35 of the ICC T20I Rankings for all-rounders
While Holder attained the 23rd position in the latest ICC T20I Rankings for bowlers, he also broke into the top 35 of the rankings for all-rounders after his recent heroics. Holder has moved up from 49th to 34th on the all-rounders' charts.
The Caribbean all-rounder will soon reach India for a series against the Men in Blue. Jasprit Bumrah has been rested for the West Indies series, meaning Holder will have an opportunity to widen the gap on the ICC T20I Rankings for bowlers.
