THE Chevrons have struggled for results in recent matches but it’s not all doom and gloom in their camp.
After all, Zimbabwe’s star player Sikandar Raza has become the top-ranked all-rounder in the ICC Men’s ODI Player Rankings for the first time in his career.
This follows a fine show in the two-match series against Sri Lanka in Harare.
The 39-year-old scored 92 and 59 not out in the two matches and took one wicket in the series to overtake the Afghanistan pair of Azmatullah Omarzai and Mohammad Nabi, who are now placed second and third, respectively.
Raza’s previous best was the second position that he attained in December 2023.
Raza’s aggregate of 151 runs also lifted him nine places to 22nd position in the batting rankings, which is two places off his career-best 24th position reached in June 2023.
He has also gained one spot to reach 38th position among bowlers − Sports Reporter/ICC.
