Arshdeep rose from No. 16 to No. 8 in the bowling charts updated on Wednesday October 09. Arshdeep Singhs previous best ranking was No. 13 but his impressive performance in Gwalior on Sunday October 6 propelled him to achieve a career-high position of No. 8 in the T20I bowling charts. Arshdeep Singh stands as the sole Indian in the top 10 of the ICC T20I Rankings for mens bowlers. Englands Adil Rashid occupies the top spot closely followed by Akeal Hosein from the West Indies.
