Bangladesh's Shakib Al Hasan reclaimed the top spot in the ICC T20I all-rounder rankings following an impressive start in the ongoing T20 World Cup in the UAE. 

Shakib saw his rating points climb from 275 to 290, surpassing Afghanistan all-rounder Mohammad Nabi in the process whose rating slid from 285 points to 275. Nabi is now ranked second in the all-rounders' list.  

At 6.45 average, Shakib is already the tournament's top wicket-taker with 11 scalps to his name. Shakib, who is currently playing against England in his fifth match of the World Cup, also sits fourth in the top run getters' list with 122 at an average of 24.40.

Shakib's tally of 11 wickets is already the most by a player in a single edition of the marquee event.
