Australian fast-bowler Pat Cummins on Sunday climbed to the top spot in the ICC Test Rankings for bowlers. Glenn McGrath was the last Australian to be ranked number 1 in 2006. AdvertisingJames Anderson also moved up two places and settled at the second spot, while Rabada slipped to third. Cummins played his first Test at the age of 18 in which he claimed a match-winning seven-wicket haul against South Africa in Johannesburg. However a series of injuries forced the cricketer to wait for another five years to feature in his second Test.
