New Delhi, 26/2: Australia skipper Steven Smith replaces Indian star batsman and captain Virat Kohli as the new Test batsman. Virat lost his top spot after a disappointing performance against the Kiwis in the first test. He only managed to score just 21 runs in two innings. Kane Williamson climbed one spot to reach the number 3 position.
