Smriti Mandhana extends her reign at the top of ICC rankings; Heather Knight, Deepti Sharma gain big

Indian vice-captain Smriti Mandhana extended her reign at the top as her rating points crossed the 800-mark once again in the latest ICC rankings for women in the ODIs. Mandhana, after a poor start to her World Cup campaign, struck some important runs, returning with scores of 80 and 88 in the crucial World Cup games against Australia and England respectively. Mandhana had 809 rating points in her kitty and has created a fair distance between herself and England skipper Nat Sciver-Brunt in second place.
