Updated from sources checked on 16 October 2026.
Ellyse Perry returned to the top ten of the women’s ODI batting rankings in the ICC update published on 13 October 2026. Australia’s gains followed the first two matches of their home ODI series against Bangladesh.
Australia’s main movements
Perry rose two positions to tenth, while Georgia Voll advanced eight places to 28th. Annabel Sutherland moved to 17th among ODI batters and fourth among bowlers. Megan Schutt climbed two positions to fifth in the bowling list.
Sutherland’s opening-match contribution included four wickets and an unbeaten 25. Schutt also took four wickets in the second ODI, providing the performance context behind the ranking movements.
Bangladesh players also advance
Nigar Sultana Joty climbed 11 places to joint-24th in the batting list, while Sobhana Mostary rose 11 to joint-35th. Individual improvements can therefore occur even when a team’s series position is difficult.
