Several Windies players have made significant strides in the weekly ICC Test Player rankings, released today after the Windies 1st Test against Pakistan at Sabina Park.

Jason Holder has increased his lead in the All-rounders category by breaking back into the 400 ratings club.

He’s now at 414 points.

It was just about a year ago when Holder reached his highest rating ever of 485.

Holder has also moved into the top 10 for bowlers – his four wickets in the 1st test over the weekend lifting him two places to ninth position.

Fast bowler Jayden Seales has soared 39 places to 58th after his eight-wicket match haul that earned him the Player of the Match award, while Kemar Roach is another gainer, moving up two places to 11th.

In the batting, Jermaine Blackwood has gained nine slots to reach 35th position after getting 22 and 55.

Holder is up five places to 43rd and Captain Kraigg Brathwaite, who missed a first-innings century by three runs, has advanced 18 places to 45th.
