Sanat Jayasuriya Storms to the Top

For the first time, on the 19th day of the Cricket World Cup, one of the pre tournament favourites occupied the top spot in NCR ratings. Sanat Jayasuriya scored a brilliant century and followed it up with a three wicket haul against West Indies to go past Mathew Hayden to occupy the top spot. Chaminda Vaas and Muthiah Muralidharan were the two other Sri Lankans who reached the top ten table.
