Liam Livingstone becomes ICC's No.1 ranked T20I all-rounder

He has brought down Marcus Stoinis by climbing seven puts on the rear of 124 runs and five wickets in the two coordinates which occurred with the decider at Old Trafford cleaned out.
The series saw Livingstone climb Britain's structure to No. 4 having been utilized as a finisher during the T20 World Cup recently and he partook in the opportunity to fabricate an innings, driving Britain to a series-evening out triumph with a strong 87 off 47 balls in Cardiff.
"It ultimately depends on me to ensure I attempt to do too as I can and provide them with somewhat of a cerebral pain for the following series," he said after the principal T20I where he made 37 and took 3 for 22 in shame. "I don't think you'll see anyone that needs to bat lower down the request.
"I need that obligation. I need to attempt to dominate matches of cricket for Britain, and the higher up the request, the more opportunity you have of doing that. There's less individuals that can assume that part [at No. 6] and some of the time you must endure it… [but] this is an opportunity for me to have a special interest."
His bowling demonstrated similarly significant as he shaped a key twist matching with Adil Rashid which two times saw Britain paw back quick Australia begins.
Livingstone's structure has seen him procure a review to the ODI crew for the five-match series against Australia as a substitution for the harmed Jos Buttler.
