He will now start 2018 with South Africa\u2019s seventh-ranked Hashim Amla firmly within his sights, who is 17 points ahead of the former England captain.<\/p>\n<p>Cook had begun the year in 15<sup>th<\/sup> position, while he had entered the Ashes in 10<sup>th<\/sup> position.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Steve Smith\u2019s contributions of 76 and 102 not out have not only strengthened his position at the top of the table but also given him sole possession of second place for the highest-ever ranking points.<\/p>\n<p>For his efforts in Melbourne, Smith earned two points and is now 14 points behind Don Bradman (961) and two points ahead of Len Hutton (945) in the all-time list.<\/p>\n<p>England captain Joe Root is the other batsman to improve his ranking, when he moved up one place to join his opposite number from New Zealand, Kane Williamson, in fourth place. Root and Williamson had started 2017 in third and fourth positions, respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Australia opener David Warner is sixth, 24 points behind Root and Williamson, after his scores of 103 and 86 earned him 30 points.
