Currently, Kane Williamson in on 2nd position with 915 points in the Test ranking and he is just 7 points behind top position batsman Virat Kohli who have 922 points in the list. Williamson has to play two Test matches against Bangladesh and he has a chance to go further Virat Kohli. Whether on the other hand, Virat Kohli won't be playing any Test match for the next five months.

 

The New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson has got the highest position in his career and that is also the highest for any New Zealand cricketer. Earlier Richard Headley who played for New Zealand was on 909 points in the bowling ranking.
