Overall Rank: 97 Ranking Points: 1898 Highest ranking: 1st (ODI)

The only Kiwi on the list, Trent Boult almost automatically walks into this list being the #1 ranked ODI bowler in the world. He is 32 points ahead of Shakib Al Hasan at second. There’s another Kiwi in the top 10 in the ODI rankings, Matt Henry. He fails to make this list however.

Boult finds himself in the top 10 in the test rankings as well, coming in at #7 as the highest ranked Kiwi in Test cricket.

It is in T20s that he takes a beating, coming in at #89! He’s so highly rated in ODI and Tests that he makes this list. If he goes up in the T20 rankings, he could make a push higher up the leaderboard.
