England batsman Michael Vaughan has
succeeded Matthew Hayden at the top of the PricewaterhouseCoopers Test
world ratings. Two low scores for Hayden in Australia's first Test
victory over the West Indies in Guyana have seen him relinquish the place
he had held since last October. Vaughan, with 877 points, takes over largely on the back of his
prolific 2002. The Yorkshire batsman scored four Test centuries last
summer and added three more in the winter's Ashes series. Australia's one-day captain Ricky Ponting is the biggest mover in the
top 10, moving up four places to number six.
