Warrican breaks into world's top 20 Test bowlers after Bangladesh series

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates. Jomel Warrican and Amir Jangoo have made the biggest gains for West Indies in the latest ICC Test rankings after strong displays in the series win in Bangladesh.

Warrican, 34, has moved into the world's top 20 bowlers for the first time in his career, climbing 11 places to 19th. The left-arm spinner is now West Indies' highest-ranked Test bowler.

He was the leading wicket-taker in the two-match series with 16 wickets at an average of 16.50 and an economy rate of 2.57. His nine-wicket haul in the first Test set up an eight-wicket victory that helped West Indies take the series.

Warrican is level with fast bowler Shamar Joseph, who slipped one place after a disappointing tour in which he took five wickets.
