Fast bowler Hasan Ali has moved up six places to 14th position while left-arm fast bowler Shaheen is up nine places to 22nd.

Nauman Ali has gone from 54th to 46th position after registering only the sixth instance of three bowlers from one side finishing with five-wicket hauls in the same Test series.

Meanwhile, Captain Babar Azam dropped one place to 10th.

The achievement made them first trio from Pakistan to grab five-wicket hauls in the same match.

The trio played important roles in the latest played test series where Pakistan won the second Test against Zimbabwe in Harare by an innings and 147 runs.

In 28 years, it was the first such instance as Australia’s Paul Reiffel, Shane Warne and Tim May achieved the feat against in 1993.
