LONDON - West Indies off spinner Sunil Narine has maintained his number one position in the ODI bowling rankings following the first round of the ICC Champions Trophy in England.

After taking five wickets in three games (Ave: 26.0, Econ: 4.81), Narine remained on 764 points.

But distance was created between himself and the man whose number one position he had earlier dislodged, Pakistani Saeed Ajmal, who dropped 27 points to 729 to join England’s Steven Finn tied for second.

Narine is also the top T20 bowler on the ICC player rankings.
