New Zealand's Ross Taylor has blasted up the Sky Sports International Sixes League to third spot.
Blazing Black Cap puts pressure on Pathan
Yusuf Pathan remains top of the Sky Sports International Sixes League despite some spectacular World Cup competition. First up was Kevin O'Brien who hit six sixes in his record 50-ball century as Ireland successfully chased 329 to beat England at Bengaluru. Ross Taylor then went one better as he cleared the boundary seven times at Pallekele in his unbeaten innings of 131 against previously-undefeated Pakistan. Taylor's blazing innings was good enough to elevate him to third in the standings, while O'Brien has surged up to seventh. With only 25 games of the World Cup gone, there are bound to be plenty more swings to come.
