The batsmen's table continues to be headed by AB de Villiers of South Africa.
In the ODI bowlers' chart, Ravichandran Ashwin is the lone Indian figuring in the top-10 list after gaining a place to be No. 10.
Meanwhile, the South African team has climbed up to No. 3 following a 2-1 win over New Zealand in the just-concluded series.
