Hardik Pandya's impressive performance in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup has seen him become the No. 1 ranked all-rounder in the latest International Cricket Council (ICC) Men's T20I Rankings update.
He rose two places to go level with Sri Lankan star Wanindu Hasaranga as the top-ranked men's T20I all-rounder.
The all-rounder, who made a big contribution in the final with the crucial wickets of Heinrich Klaasen and David Miller, had a good tournament with bat and ball and becomes the first Indian man to reach No. 1 in the category.
Pandya made impactful cameos down the order with the bat and made breakthroughs with the ball when the team needed him to. He finished with 144 runs at a batting strike-rate of over 150 and also took 11 wickets.
