Despite his unbeaten 139 in the third and final one-dayer of the Afro-Asia Cup in Chennai, India wicketkeeper batsman Mahendra Singh Dhoni remained in the fourth place in the latest LG-ICC Player Rankings for ODI batsmen.

Dhoni, who hit the highest-ever ODI score by a number seven batsman in Chennai, now trails third-placed Michael Hussey of Australia by 10 rating points.

England's Kevin Pietersen still occupies top batting spot with Australia captain Ricky Ponting in second place.

Sri Lanka opening batsman Sanath Jayasuriya's slide in the rankings since the ICC Cricket World Cup continues as he has dropped six places and is now ranked 13th overall.

Jayasuriya's loss means Australia's Andrew Symonds has moved into the top 10.

South Africa's Shaun Pollock has achieved his highest career batting rating following his maiden ODI century in the Afro-Asian Cup played in Bangalore and Chennai last week.

Pollock moves up 12 places and is now in 40th spot in the LG ICC Player Rankings for ODI batsmen after a brilliant 130 off 110 balls in Bangalore.

Pollock, who played in the series as a specialist batsman following a minor foot surgery, continues to lead the LG ICC Player Rankings for ODI bowlers as the top 14 places in that category remains unchanged.

Indian spinner Harbhajan Singh, who took four wickets in the two matches, dropped two places and is now ranked 15th.

Pollock leads team-mate Jacques Kallis in the LG ICC Player Rankings for ODI all-rounders table while West Indies all-rounder Chris Gayle is in third place.
