India’s star batter Shubman Gill retained the top spot in the latest update of the ICC rankings for men’s ODI batters.

Star batter Virat Kohli once again displayed why he is rated so highly in white-ball cricket, more so in big-ticket tournaments, and as the master of run-chases, with his gritty half century helping India beat Australia by four wickets in the high-pressure semifinal of the ICC Champions Trophy in Dubai on Tuesday.

Kohli scored 76 off 82 balls in India's innings and 32-run defeat, bringing his career total to 2006 runs in 2023.
The former India captain passed Rohit Sharma to reach the milestone. In 57 innings, Kohli scored 2101 runs. In 42 innings, Rohit scored 2097 runs.
