Great to see the rankings reflect such a competitive series. Annabel Sutherland at #2 is impressive too. The depth in women's cricket globally is really improving. Congrats to all the players!

Excellent news, but we need to be careful. Rankings are one thing, but winning world tournaments is another. Our batting still seems a bit dependent on a couple of players. Need to build more depth in the middle order.

Shree Charani jumping 11 spots to 26th is being overlooked! That's a massive gain. Our spin attack is becoming a real force. Well done to the entire team for the series win! 🎉

As a cricket fan, it's refreshing to see the women's game get this level of coverage and analysis. The ICC rankings help tell the story of a series beyond just the scoreline. Good to see players from SA and WI getting mentions too.
