Stuart Broad moved to the third spot in the all-rounder rankings, while he has also jumped to seventh place in the bowling table following match figures of 8-76.

Rahul Dravid, who made his second successive Test match hundred of the series, has continual his surge up the rankings, rising four places to joint 11th. There are already three India batters in the top 10, with Sachin Tendulkar (3rd), VVS Laxman (9th) and Virender Sehwag (10th) just ahead of Dravid.Bell recorded his fourth century in the space of six Test Matches at Trent Bridge and is now just 16 rating points behind teammate Jonathan Trott, who has slipped two places in the rankings to fourth position.

Matt Prior (21st), Stuart Broad (44th) and Tim Bresnan (joint 75th) have also achieved new career-high ratings following England’s 319-run victory which gave it a 2-0 lead in the four-match series. However, it is not all good news for England’s batters, as Alastair Cook has slipped six places to 11th position following a disappointing series in which he has made just 20 runs in four innings.
