After scoring 119 runs in the third and final ODI of England's three-match series against South Africa, Tammy Beaumont, the team's opener, moved up three spots and reentered the top 10 of the ICC Women's ODI Player Rankings, which were revealed on Tuesday. 

Beaumont hit 178 runs at an average of 59.33 in the three ODIs against South Africa despite feeling "gutted" at being left out of England's T20I selection for the Commonwealth Games. 

On the most recent list of batters, the 31-year-old is now ranked eighth, ahead of the veteran trio Chamari Athapaththu, Smriti Mandhana, and Ellyse Perry.

Emma Lamb and Danni Wyatt, teammates of Beaumont, have advanced significantly in the most recent rankings. Wyatt moved up three spots to position 24 after scoring 33 in the most recent game, while Lamb moved up 35 spots to position 66 after scoring 67 and 65 in the two games they played over the previous week. Sophia Dunkley moved up eight spots to land in 29th. 

Nat Sciver dropped down the table one spot after skipping the last ODI with England already having won the series. Alyssa Healy continues to remain in first place in the ODI rankings, as she rose to third place behind Beth Mooney.

With seven wickets in two games, England spinner Charlie Dean has climbed six spots to a career-best 24th place in the bowlers' list headed by Sophie Ecclestone. 

However, despite losing the series 3-0, South African players have also advanced well. 

After scoring 73 and 62, Marizanne Kapp moves up six spots to take 18th place among batters. In the list of all-rounders, Natalie Sciver of England is at the top, followed closely by Ellyse Perry of Australia in second place, and she has climbed two spots to third. 

While Nadine de Klerk has risen from 59th to 52nd on the bowlers' list, Chloe Tryon has gone up two spots to 20th among hitters and ten spots to 48th among bowlers.

Rebecca Stokell of Ireland has moved up seven spots to number 88 in the ICC Women's T20I Player Rankings after scoring 22 against Australia in the first match of the tri-series between Ireland, Australia, and Pakistan. 

Darcie Brown and Alana King, who are joint-161st, as well as Australian bowlers Nicola Carey (up three spots to 52nd) and Ashleigh Gardner (up three spots to 57th), have all improved.
