In a major change to the ICC rankings, the veteran Afghanistan cricketer Mohammad Nabi became the no.1 T20I all-rounder in the world on Wednesday, June 12. Nabi dethroned Bangladeshi cricketer Shakib Al Hasan from the top after the latter’s poor show in the ongoing ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
Nabi, 39, was part of Afghanistan’s both opening fixtures in the World Cup where he scored 14 runs and took two wickets to lead his team to two big wins. On the other hand, Shakib has struggled with both bat and ball across formats lately and that cost him the top spot after a considerable time.
