Smith Surges To Career-best No. 2, Matthews Regains Top All-rounder Spot In Womens T20I Rankings

T20I Bowling Rankings: England spinner Linsey Smith has climbed 38 places to a career-best second position in the latest ICC Womens T20I Bowling Rankings after starring in Englands 2-1 series win over New Zealand women's ahead of the ICC Women's T20 World Cup 2026. Smith was named Player of the Series after picking up six wickets across the three matches, including figures of 3/25 in the second T20I at Canterbury. The left-arm spinner moved past fellow England spinner Sophie Ecclestone, who slipped to third place in the rankings. Englands pace bowler Lauren Bell, who missed the final T20I after claiming three wickets in the opening two games, remains fourth, while stand-in captain Charlie Dean strengthened her hold on seventh spot following a five-wicket series haul. England now have four bowlers inside the top seven of the T20I rankings. Spin continues to dominate the bowling charts, with eight spinners featuring in the top 10. Bell and Australia all-rounder Annabel Sutherland are the only seamers in that group. For New Zealand, left-arm pacer Bree Illing continued her impressive rise by moving up 12 places to 45th after taking four wickets in the series, while spinner Nensi Patel jumped 34 spots to joint-71st. In the batting rankings, former New Zealand captain Sophie Devine returned to the top 10 for the first time in two years after scoring 132 runs in the series, including knocks of 45 and 87 in the opening two matches. There was limited movement among the top-ranked batters, partly due to the absence of England duo Natalie Sciver-Brunt and Danni Wyatt-Hodge, while New Zealand stars Amelia Kerr and Suzie Bates endured a quiet series with the bat. Australia continue to dominate the batting rankings, with Georgia Voll and Beth Mooney holding the top two spots. Tahlia McGrath remains sixth, while Phoebe Litchfield is joint-13th. New Zealand batter Maddy Green climbed eight places to 39th after scoring 93 runs in the series, highlighted by a 56-run knock in the second T20I, where she shared a national-record fifth-wicket partnership of 159 with Devine after New Zealand had slumped to 11/4. In the batting rankings, former New Zealand captain Sophie Devine returned to the top 10 for the first time in two years after scoring 132 runs in the series, including knocks of 45 and 87 in the opening two matches.

There is no reason not to follow your heart: 7 life lessons to teach kids from Steve Jobs iconic speech

In 2005, Steve Jobs delivered an iconic commencement speech at Stanford University that continues to inspire millions across generations. With his words of wisdom, the visionary entrepreneur shared a powerful message about life, purpose, failure, and courage. Even years later, educators revisit his speech as the lessons they carried are still deeply relevant.When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like, If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right. It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I've looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself, If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today? And whenever the answer has been no for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something. Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything, all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure, these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.While children may not fully understand the complexities of these words, yet the hidden lesson his powerful message can teach hidden values. Here are 7 meaningful lessons parents can teach kids from Steve Jobs inspirational speech:
