Michael Clarke moves up rankings after fourth Ashes test
Australia vice-captain Michael Clarke moved up to second place in the International Cricket Council's test rankings for batsmen after hitting 93 in the fourth Ashes test at Headingley.
Clarke, Australia's highest run-getter in the series with 445, recorded his career-best ranking after the tourists beat England by an innings and 80 runs on Sunday to level the five-test series 1-1. The final test begins on Aug 20.
Clarke replaced India's Gautam Gambhir in second place behind Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara. South African fast bowler Dale Steyn retained the top spot among test bowlers.
