Rohit Sharma, Abhishek Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah and Varun Chakravarthy will end 2025 as the number one players in Tests, ODIs and T20 cricket.
Former India captains Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli will finish as world No. 1 and 2 batters in ODI cricket. It is the first time that Rohit will be ending the year as the world No 1 cricketer. Rohit currently has 781 points while Kohli is just eight rating points behind on 773.
India's ODI captain Shubman Gill will end the 2025 season as world No. 5 ODI batter with 723 points. In T20I cricket, Sunrisers Hyderabad and Team India opener Abhishek Sharma remains at No. 1 position with 908 points while Mumbai Indians southpaw Tilak Varma will end 2025 at the No. 3 place with 805 points.
England wicketkeeper-opener Phil Salt will separate the Indian duo in 2nd place with 849 at the end of 2025. In Test cricket, England's Joe Root and vice-captain Harry Brook will end as the No 1 and 2 batters in the format.
Brook's 41 and unbeaten 18 to see out England's chase saw him move three spots to second on the Test Batting rankings (846), moving out of the logjam of those chasing Joe Root for top spot.

Starc's four wickets was enough for him to join Noman Ali in a tie for second spot (843), with Scott Boland moving up two spots to seventh at a rating of 810, both career highs.
In the T20I bowling rankings, Kolkata Knight Riders and Team India off-spinner Varun Chakravarthy will end 2025 as the world No. 1 bowler with 804 points ahead of New Zealand's Jacob Duffy is in second place and Rashid Khan from Afghanistan ending in third place.
