Ravichandran Ashwin has retained the number one spot in the ICC Test rankings for bowlers despite not being named in the playing XI for the 2023 World Test Championship (WTC) final. India decided to play four pacers, which meant there was no place for Ashwin despite being India's highest wicket-taker in the 21–23 WTC Cycle. Ashwin finished as India's leading wicket-taker and overall third-highest wicket-taker behind South Africa's Kagiso Rabada (67 wickets) and Australian spinner Nathan Lyon (88 wickets) in WTC 2021-23 cycle. He took 61 wickets in 13 matches at an average of 19.67 and an economy rate of 2.48. His best bowling figures are 6/91. In WTC 2021-23 cycle, Rohit scored 758 runs in 11 matches at an average of 42.11. He scored two centuries and two fifties in 19 innings, with the best score of 127. The skipper missed out on some matches due to injury. On the other hand, Virat posted decent numbers but could not live up to his 'King Kohli' tag in this cycle. In 17 matches, he scored 932 runs at an average of 32.13. In 30 innings, he scored only one century and three fifties, with the best score of 186. Scoring 163 across the first two days of the World Test Championship Final against India at The Oval, Head jumped three places, joining Marnus Labuschagne (1st) and Steve Smith (2nd) in the top three with a rating of 884. Usman Khawaja (9th, 777 rating points) makes it four Australians in the top 10. Smith and Head were the third and fourth highest-scorer for Australia...
