Ashley Giles has broken into the PwC top 10 for the first time, after capturing nine wickets in the second Test against West Indies. The haul in his latest match took him to 24 in his last three games, with only Steve Harmison ahead of him. But Harmison dropped a spot to third place after taking only one wicket in the second Test.Giles’s entry at No. 10 is the best rating for an English spinner since John Emburey achieved it in the 1980s. England’s great spin hope of the 1990s, Phil Tufnell, came close but not close enough. Over to batting. Marcus Trescothick climbed seven places to No. 12 after scoring 105 and 107 at Edgbaston; a quarter of his side’s runs. England have one other batsman in the top 20 – Graham Thorpe, in 19th place.
