Afghanistan all-rounder Mohammad Nabi has replaced former Bangladesh skipper Shakib Al Hasan as the number one ODI all-rounder in the latest ICC rankings. Nabi rose in the rankings on the back of his 136 and one wicket in the first ODI of the ongoing three-match series in Sri Lanka. Shakib’s non-participation in 50-over format since the 2023 ODI World Cup also helped the Afghan become the top all-rounder in the world. The Bangladesh skipper had been on top for almost five years.
