Varun Chakravarthy was awarded with a massive ranking boost after his five-wicket haul in India's second T20I game against New Zealand. The experienced spinner picked eight wickets in the first two games and jumped 110 places up to the 66th position in the updated ICC men's T20I bowling rankings on Wednesday.

India suffered a three-wicket loss in the second T20I against the Kiwis after scoring just 124 runs while batting first. But Varun kept India alive with his maiden five-wicket haul in international cricket. Varun also clinched three wickets in the series opener as he continue to make an impact on his return to the international scenes. 

Meanwhile, Ravi Bishnoi remains the only Indian bowler in the top 10 of the ICC men's T20I bowling rankings. Bishnoi clinched four wickets in the first two games against the Black Caps and witnessed a jump to seventh position with 666 ratings. 

However apart from Bishnoi and Chakravarthy, the rest of the Indian bowlers suffered a drop in the updated T20I bowling rankings. Axar Patel failed to pick any wickets in the opening two matches against New Zealand and dropped seven places to 23rd position. 

The star all-rounder Hardik Pandya also lost a place and slipped to 65th position after another poor show with a ball against the Kiwis.
