Ricky Ponting may have been named Man of the Series after Tuesday's thrilling fourth Test in Antigua, but his absence from that match has enabled Matthew Hayden to reclaim second place in the PwC batting ratings. After a lean series (by his recent standards) Hayden burst back to form with 177 in Australia's second innings. England's Michael Vaughan, however, holds on to the No. 1 position after his heroics in the Ashes series.
It was a less successful match for Glenn McGrath. He picked up three wickets, but his contribution was overshadowed by an ugly row with Ramnaresh Sarwan. McGrath missed the first two Tests due to his wife's illness, and after a wicketless Test in Barbados, he has slipped below Shaun Pollock in the bowling ratings.
West Indies are on the up, however. Brian Lara has returned to the world's top five, while both their century-makers Shivnarine Chanderpaul and Ramnaresh Sarwan, as well as Jermaine Lawson, who took 7 for 78 in Australia's first innings, have also enjoyed significant gains.
