**LONDON –** England’s Sophie Ecclestone maintains a narrow lead in the women’s bowling rankings despite a modest series performance. Ecclestone, who took only two wickets in the recent series, holds a precarious 23-point advantage over teammate Sarah Glenn and Pakistan’s Sadia Iqbal, who are tied for second place.
Glenn’s impressive five-wicket haul propelled her three places up the rankings, firmly establishing her as a serious contender for the top spot. Other notable movers include England’s Charlie Dean, who jumped six places to ninth overall after being the series’ leading wicket-taker, and Lauren Bell, who climbed five spots to 15th.
