Team India has been on an impressive T20I run since the 2024 T20 World Cup, dominating the format while being inconsistent in the other formats. Since the tournament, India has played 20 T20I matches, losing only two—one against England in Rajkot and another against South Africa in December.
Despite these two losses, India has managed to win all the remaining games, maintaining their position at Number 1 in the ICC T20I Rankings. This dominance is the result of a collective team effort, but when it comes to individual performances, several players have risen significantly in the rankings, contributing to the team's success.

Varun Chakravarthy: Mystery Spinner’s Significant Rise to Number 5
India's mystery spinner, Varun Chakravarthy, has enjoyed a significant rise in the ICC T20I Bowler Rankings. He now sits at Number 5, a well-deserved achievement after an exceptional series. Since his return, Chakravarthy has been a nightmare for opposing batters, taking two five-wicket hauls in recent games.
