Kane Williamson Overtakes Steve Smith To Take Top Position

​By a staff reporter : New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson on Wednesday reclaimed the number one spot in the ICC Test Player Rankings. The 30-year-old's knocks of 49 and 52 not out in the low-scoring World Test Championship final against India have helped him move above the 900-point mark and he now enjoys a 10-point lead over Steve Smith (891 rating points). Williamson, who conceded the top spot to Smith two weeks ago, is back in the position he had first grabbed in November 2015 during a series against Australia.
